Dear All, The other day on the forum whilst searching, I stumbled accross this outstanding player and now I cant seem to locate one of the most beautiful Rast i've ever heard. Wondering if anyone can help me find it?. typing in his name is not bringing the clip up, so I am baffled and cannot remember how I found it in the first place. :shrug: Thanks in anticipation. C

I had a look, and I couldn't find much. Do you mean the clip was on this forum or on youtube etc? Anyway, this is what I got.

Thankyou Owain, they are lovely too but there is this rast in here some where which I'm longing to hear again. I think the thread listed two recordings both on mp3. Thanks again for trying for me. C

My pleasure. :) Please post here if you find it though, I want to see what all the 'hype' is about ;).

Will do, I remember a couple of pages worth of praise accompanied the thread, it went down well with many. C

Hi Charlie,

I hope Elias doesn't mind me uploading this.
And I hope it is the one you are looking for.

Elias is such an exceptional player, I have kept copies of everything he has ever uploaded here. (it may not have been originally uploaded with this filename)

Regards,

Greg

Thanks Greg, Thats a fine Rast and great playing, I love his style & share your view. I think the Rast I heard is longer than this and I remember reading that he mailed it to Mike who sorted the 2 clips and posted them uncompressed. It was only a few days ago when I heard them for the first time so I feel sure they are still around. Thanks again, its good to hear more of him.

Charlie, I think this is what you are looking for (halfway down page 1)
