I am a big fan of 2002, and have 7 of their albums. I can say that The Emerald Way is not their best work, but it still is pretty good. It is just that I like their other albums better, namely Chrysalis, River of Stars, This Moment Now, Land of Forever, and Across an Ocean of Dreams. One thing that they did different on this album is they have pronounced vocal effects on the voice on track 3. It works. I have given the album 5 stars instead of 4 because even when 2002 is not at their best they still manage to create wonderful music. If you have their other albums and want even more 2002, it would be safe to explore this album.

Get your warm tea, a confortable spot or position, and prepare for a peacful departure to a quiet and gentle place. A must for you musical library. I have over 450 cd's of this "type" of music and it ranks near the very top!!

Stumbled across this CD and purchased it for no other reason than the cover art and titles of the the songs intrigued me. I'd never heard of 2002 before but was delighted with the serendipity of the purchase - this CD is amazing. I've since bought "The Sacred Well" and plan on aquiring their earlier works in time. Their music is like a "music lasagne" - layers on layers of misty melody and counterpoint, complimenting each other but soulful enough to stand on their own. How music can be so relaxing yet so compelling I don't know, but I tip my hat to Pamela and Randy for mastering it.

When I first listened to this fabulous assortment of music, I was really touched. I myself, read reviews saying how wonderful, serene and peaceful this music was, and how wonderful it made them feel, so I purchased it. I can truly say whithout any hesitation, that it is truly a work of art and I find it very relaxing to have it in my car and heard while driving, to keep me relaxed and focused in a calm state. I thank the authors of this wonderful assortment for thier accumulation of peace in the gentle sounds of music! Bravo and please keep up the great work.. It does have a celtic feel in a peaceful and calming way, and I would highly recommend it to all who search for that sound.

This is an awesome CD. I am a huge 2002 fan and this CD is one of their best. If you love new age music...you will love this CD.

I hope the music in heaven will sound this sweet. If you are a fan of Enya you will love this. My favorite track is Unopened Flower. I heard it on Pandora radio, and decided to take a chance on the CD. I am so glad I did. It's relaxing, uplifting, so sweet and serene.

I can always tell when 2002 is on in my CD-changer, as the whole tempo, rhythm and melody of The Emerald Way is one-of-a-kind: peaceful, relaxing and at times a bit campy, but that's sometimes just what I need after a hard day's work. "Inner Light" on track one starts out slowly, much like in the fashion of Paul Winter. "Another Answer Came" on track two is nothing short of glorius, and almost makes me feel like I'm on my way too heaven, not to sound to corny, but it is definitely on the sentimental side, and 2002 has a way of bring out that part of me, which I appreciate.

The other tracks--well, I suppose each listener has his or her own journey to take, but if you're expecting trendy and upbeat this is definitely not the road for you. If, on the other hand, you are expecting something more laid back, calming and reassuring, then I can assure you, my friend, The Emerald Way is the way to go.

This is a more meditative entry from 2002. Now, I own only two of their albums "This moment now" and "land of forever" so I'm not an expert on their music but this is much a background piece than the two albums I already own. Very nice, though.

2002 is one of my favorite music couples. This is one of 4 CD's I listen to daily in my car. At times, I can almost visualize dancers moving to the beautiful, meditative music in it. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

I've said it again & again - they have got to do a New Age Concerto w/ 2002, Enya, & the like!
This couple is absolutely fantastic!
I wonder if there has been the prospect of a physical New Age Community?
This music is absolutely Heavenly!
It touches the very essence of your Heart & inner core of your Soul.
