Lewis’s The Screwtape Letters.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe album also features a song Thile wrote about Dionysus; a performance of the fourth movement of Béla Bartók’s Sonata for Solo Violin; “God Is Alive, Magic Is Afoot”, based on Buffy Sainte-Marie’s adaptation of a Leonard Cohen poem; a cover of bluegrass legend Hazel Dickens’ “Won’t You Come and Sing for Me”; and an original instrumental loosely modelled after the Prelude from J.S. Bach’s Partita for Solo Violin in E Major.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WARNER NR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40417883324490,"sku":"397316","price":40.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0566\/7120\/7498\/files\/397316-Product-0-I-638917011962122591.jpg?v=1761792909","url":"https:\/\/www.jbhifi.co.nz\/products\/vinyl-thile-chris-nickel-creek-laysongs-vinyl-lp","provider":"JB Hi-Fi NZ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
