 REVIEWS FROM LISTENERS
"I received the CDs yesterday and had a chance to listen in entirety to Sacred Wood last night and this morning on the way to work. Congratulations on this record. I believe it is the finest acoustic guitar work I have ever heard. It is truly a stunning acoustic guitar achievement . I'm not a professional reviewer by any means, but I know when music is truly great, and this record certainly is. "Spirits" was a remarkable record, but I believe this one transcends it. Sacred Wood is a wonderful journey for the mind and soul. From beginning to end the record has a magical feel...difficult to describe but thoroughly captivating and emotionally uplifting. The songs are just magnificent, each one capturing an individual mood or tone while telling a story. The melodies and notes become lyrics in my head. Each song is like a different chapter in an adventure novel, perfectly flowing together through to a satisfying end.
You were wise to use several different guitars, as the sound never becomes boring or redundant and remains refreshing throughout. So many acoustic guitar artists fail to recognize this. Nice way to show off your luthiers as well.
The playing is precise and brilliant, but so beautifully understated that it sounds like a mere mortal could play it even though it's not possible. You play the songs with no attempt to show off your playing dexterity, and therein lies the beauty of this record. The songs always make the difference in any record, and what comes through on Sacred Wood first are the songs, and then almost simultaneously you realize how damn good the playing is. So many times artists get this backwards and their records become boring very quickly.
Thanks for this record. It will be a staple of my music library for many years to come."
-Tony Gorman, Harlingen Texas
