Darn you....go and ruin my rep like that...

"Yikes! I don't generally *LIKE* instrumental music [or even tolerate?]. Too sappy, too happy. Too cold, sterile, impersonal. Too "is this fluorescent light giving you a migraine?" Too perfectionistic...too manipulative...too "in lack of emotion, just add strings" mock emotional pie...What happened? Why is this different? Simply....it's good. Very, very, very good. I bought this CD for my father...now I need to go and get another one. It's worth the money."
Truly inspiring!

"A musician friend of mine gave me a copy of this years ago when I bought my dulcimer with the intent of inspiring me! It did just that! The instrumentation is outstanding. A little bit of western, blue grass, celtic -- one moment you're picturing Maverick riding over the countryside, the next minute you're swept away to a Renaissance moment. Each song is vastly different from the others -- exciting, yet soothing -- and all with a distinctly Oktober feel. I play it constantly in my car. I'm so afraid the tape will wear out, I'm buying the CD!"
