Ommmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. Wow., November 28, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Indigo (Audio CD)
I read a review of this in the Rusted Root newsletter and on a whim decided to buy it if I ever found it. The CD is an hour of the same melody repeated over and over, with OM thrown in and a few hard-to-catch surprises. At first it sounded like the same stuff over and over, but this is great music to read by, to study to, to sleep with, to make love to, or just relax and turn off the lights, light a candle, and get in touch with rarely visited inner self. My home was burglarized and all 400 CDs were stolen. When it came time to replace them, I obviously didn't buy 400 at once, but "Indigo" was among the first batch of replacements. It grows on you and lulls you to a state of ecstasy. Too bad Rusted Roots recent albums haven't been this good...

Relaxing, but..., September 30, 2008
This review is from: Indigo (Audio CD)
I am glad I got this used for cheap. Given how much I enjoy Rusted Root (and Donovan's drumming is obviously the backbone of that whole experience), I had high hopes for some interesting experimental material on this album. Boy was I disappointed to find that it is merely a slow build-up to a short loop that is repeated for an hour. Not that that loop isn't soothing to listen to, but it's basically guitar strings being struck with drumsticks. Not recommended except purely as background noise.

Deeply moving journey, July 20, 2004
This review is from: Indigo (Audio CD)
I'm a little late sharing my praises for this disc, I have owned Indigo for 6 years, and not once has it failed to alter my mind and body to a better place. This music creates such a perfect place, an unexplainable but very comforting "presence" is in this music. Whether it is to relax, re-center myself or shake off negativity, this CD is what I reach for. I recently played this for myself in our livingroom and after it ended, my husband came in from the other room and asked what I was playing. He said it was extremely moving and had relaxed him. What a testiment. Highly recommend
