5.0 out of 5 stars Another gem from Cullen!, October 11, 2000

I can't imagine any guitar fan not loving this album...in fact, any lover of the quieter end of the music spectrum should be thrilled. It's a recording of all originals, recorded solo, with references to jazz, folk, classical, new age and pop stylings without falling easily into any one of them. While his writing is beautiful, it's Cullen's playing, exquisite, but always in the service of the music, that carries the day for me. There's a weird sort of joyous bittersweetness to the compositions, that drew me in from the first notes. Enjoy this one!

I listened to this CD one evening while I was reading and couldn't believe how beautifully peaceful the sounds. David Cullen definitely has a way with the guitar that simply amazes me. His music is not over-bearing or intrusive, it's like a warm gentle breeze wafting through air. My favorite song on this CD is "Good to see you". This CD is just too yummy for words.

Along the same lines of two earlier releases, "Blue Counterpoint" and "Suspended Animation," Cullen's "Indigo Blue" soothes the fingerstyle fan while deftly dodging the cliches of "newage" guitar. Anyone "in the know" will recognize his influences as they appear on the record--Towner, Metheny, and a heavy dose of blues and soul--add resonance to the tunes. While I might not choose this over "One Night, One Guitar" as my introduction to Cullen, if you like Ed Gerhard, Bill Mize, and the better Wil Ackerman stuff, give this album a listen. With a ton of tunes recorded over just a few days at Ackerman's VT studio, this album finds a mellow corner of the listener's mind and makes camp.
