"Listen, relax, and enjoy. The world will be an easier place. Rush hour traffic, screaming kids, cleaning the docile, stress of everyday life. Relax and listen, calming and full of energy in a reviving way. You will love and cherish this CD"
This music takes us through American and Armenian cultures

""Naked In The Rain" is a tantalizing blend of the sensuous and the ethereal, which takes us on a spiritual journey through Native American and traditional Armenian cultures. The hypnotic vocals on "Thorns Left Behind" portrays love in it's most sacred form. The union of the spoken word and solo flute performance by Raven in "Grow Wings To Your Heart", I think is the essence of this CD. It is unmatched in it's unique flavor and will leave you with a cleansing of the soul and awakening of the spirit. Raven portrays a sense of purity in his work which will trasform your spirit into a new birth. Joanne Olivieri Poet"
The ultimate for spiritual meditation

"Privileged to personally meet this most wonderful artist and his family in San Francisco, and found them to be so warm and kind and loving. This is reflected in the absorblingly refreshingly creative music that Raven creates in this CD and his previous one of Visions. I just 'plugged my ears' in and floated off to worlds that I thought I would never be able to visit. What I saw and felt are almost beyond words, I was one with God and many others too, I 'felt' things that were happening here back home in England and had confirmed on my return. This music has been the only (so far) that I have been able to truly meditate to, that has enabled my soul to 'travel' from my body to a place that can only be described as heaven ( and I'm 100 per cent sure that that is where I went!}. The native americans are so in tune with their spiritual selves and Raven, on the native american flute, captures this like no one I have ever been fortunate enough to come across. God Bless you Raven, I look forward to more from you - for my sake - if nobody elses!Slight criticism - for Amazon that is, I found it a little confusing separating 'my Raven' from the other titles listed and wonder if it could be possible to distinguish the artists a little bit more clearly-thank you"

"This CD is the opporutnity to sink into yourself and take an exclusive journey. You dance a new dance and let the earth under your feet ground you. The hypnotic rhythms and the softness of the flute, Raven captures the dream stage, the area that exists where all things are possible. He begins with the doorway to your soul and ends with wings of freedom that send you into flight. Thanks for the opportunity to fly."
Hypnotizing! Takes you into another world! Addictive!

"A MUST CD for the new age lovers. Love the combination of Native American music with Armenian singing, most refreshing. It's like being transformed into a different world of serenity and of dreams. Kind of like Salvador Dali in paintings... CATHARSIS!!!"
