"I had listened to a piece by Steve and Baly (Amin Amin)and was impressed. So I thought I would take a chance and order this CD. I am glad to say, I am not disappointed at all. All the selections are nice. Of course, I have a few favorite tracks (can't go wrong with tracks 1 thru 6 and 10). As a whole though this CD is very good. Steve learned a lot in his travels and it shows on this musical odyssey. I like Steve Shehan's talent for blending different cultural instruments (vocals and items) into his music. I've said this before, but again, if you like to travel and you've never been to this part of the world, travel by ear."

"I just purchased this CD and, on first blush, I can say that this is an incredibly interesting musical odessey. I bought it based on my enjoyment of his other CD...Assarouf, another mysterious and compelling musical experience. It is all very unworldly and alternative in sound and rhytym. Clearly this is an artist that has journeyed to all parts of the globe looking for unusual and haunting sounds that he translates into his own musical expression. If different, exotic and highly sensual is what you seek...this CD is unequivocably it!"
