There are few CDs in my collection that I can sleep to or that can evoke particular memories and thoughts. For where I was in life...it was the best set of "rose-colored-goggles" that I could wish for. I guess I wasn't looking for anything in particular with this album (I bought it on a whim), and I'm not really familiar with other albums released by Narada. This album, particularly the first few tracks, really kept me going. Everyone listens to music differently, I guess...

I bought this CD awhile back and thought it was great. I gave a copy to my older sister for her birthday, and, she raved about it. I've played it for over twenty people, individually, and, the verdict was unanimous: its a fantastic CD. When the electric meter reader asks, "What's that beautiful music you've got playing?, or, a charitable organization calls requesting a donation, and, before ending the call, asks the same question....ITS GOOD! I don't know what you other reviewers are talking about.

For sure, Narada has released better albums than this one, but I've also heard much worse piano music. There are about 2 songs here that rise above mediocrity (the first track and 12th track) but the others, while not bad, don't imprint themselves on you.

Not one composition on the entire album rises above mediocrity.Most are downright awful.Narada ought to be ashamed of releasing something so putrid on the public.Without a doubt the worst cd I've ever had the displeasure to hear.
