Baroque Pop
Baroque pop (sometimes called baroque rock) is a fusion genre that combines rock music with particular elements of classical music. It emerged in the mid-1960s as artists pursued a majestic, orchestral sound and is identifiable for its appropriation of Baroque music, Baroque compositional styles (contrapuntal melodies and functional harmony patterns) and dramatic or melancholic gestures. Harpsichords figure prominently, while oboes, French horns, and string quartets are also common. Although harpsichords had been deployed for a number of pop hits since the 1940s, some record producers in the 1960s increasingly placed the instrument in the foreground of their arrangements. Inspired partly by the Beatles' song "In My Life" (1965), various groups were incorporating baroque and classical instrumentation by early 1966. The term "baroque rock" was coined in promotional material for the Left Banke, who used harpsichords and violins in their arrangements and whose 1966 song "Walk Away Re ...

Lama Rabi Rabi
''Lama Rabi Rabi'' is an album by the band Ghost. Drag City released the album in 1996, the first time a Ghost album had been issued by an American label.

''Spin'' noted that "you can hear psychedelia, vocals fed through a megaphone, a folk tune interrupted by studio phasing, even hints of a power ballad." The ''Staten Island Advance'' determined that "whirling, chant-driven, progressive-rockers lead way to a beautifully rolling folk-rock, recalling an amalgamation of Quicksilver Messenger Service, Incredible String Band, Flying Saucer Attacks and Pink Floyd."
