5.0 out of 5 stars Rare Treat!, December 29, 2000

This review is from: Alfie (Audio CD)

This recording is full of soulful harmonica playing in the style only Stevie himself could deliver. There is not a single lick of vocals, just dreamy technicolor grooves straight out of 1968. On the slower selections, the orchestral arrangements are rather lush (not for the faint of heart!) and may strike fits of rage in pubescent teens. All joking aside, music fans will appreciate this unprecedented show of harmonica artistry. I have searched stores from San Francisco to New York; it is a rare find.

3.0 out of 5 stars the best kept secret that i know of, July 10, 2001

my friend turned me on to this over 20 years ago. rumor has it that stevie wanted to do a harp album, and RCA said no way. he did it anyway, and it's the bomb. just had to change his name to Eivets Rednow. Enjoy the best talent with an entire orchestra behind him. Michael B.

4.0 out of 5 stars For harmonicists and fans of easy listening, December 28, 2001

For the casual listener, this CD is filled with some very relaxing music. The srot of thing you'd play at the end of a hard day's work or at a candlelight dinner at home with a loved one. For aspiring harmonicists, one listen to this will let you know that you still need to practice! Enjoy.
