My introduction to Windham Hill -- a constant joy

"This was the first Windham Hill Sampler I ever bought -- as a tape. For months, it formed the audioscape for my life, mostly driving. I played it so much, the tape finally broke. I replaced it, and played the second one so much it went too... It's not just that the individual artists' performances are melodic and lovely, but that the whole album is programmed as flawlessly as a collage that creates a larger, harmonious whole. Seven years later, I miss this album so much, I'm buying my third copy -- this time on CD. Bless Windham Hill!"

One of the best Windham Hill Samplers

"The Windham Hill Sampler Series is what made the company one of the top publishers of new age music. This Sampler is one of their Top Samplers of all time. The 1990 (First Ten Years) is better than this album, and so are most of George Winston's albums, but if you can get this sampler I highly recommend it as it represents "The Greatest Hit Artists of 1988" on the Windham Hill Label."
