A lovely compilation of bay area acoustic guitarists in the style of James Blackshaw, Leo Kottke, John Fahey etc. Very pretty, pastoral, and evocative of nature and deep thought. All instrumentals, all good. -nari

1. finger-picked minor key lament
2. a nine minute story beautifully told on slowly evolving solo guitar
3. like gently bobbing on water
4. pensive & rhythmic with a pretty climax
5. a 12-string canyon of sound morphing over 12 minutes
6. densely layered guitars with fast moving undercurrent
7. an upbeat blues track
