5.0 out of 5 stars At Last..., June 12, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Land of the Loon (Audio CD)

I'll admit that when I first saw this album I was skeptical. After all, I had bought another "loon call" tape only to be disappointed by it. It was NOT very relaxing--the one time that I did use it to help me sleep I was disturbed by some intense music pieces.

After looking into 'Land of the Loon', and listening to a few sound pieces I decided that it would at least be worth listening to in its entirety. What an understatement! I listen to this album all of the time due to its very soothing and magically soothing effects on my stress.

What I find especially nice about this album is that I can picture myself sitting in some northern wood, breathing in all of the splendid scenery...and possibly painting too. There are several tracks where I think to myself: now that scene would be nice to paint onto canvas.

Simply said: this divine piece of music and natural sounds woven together seamlessly will inspire you artistically--to be creative and enjoy nature more. Now this album is one that I can fall asleep to--there aren't ANY clashing sounds or intense musical numbers. That makes this album a lifelong companion...and a wonderful peek into the land of the loon.

5.0 out of 5 stars Is your heart in the mountains?, May 29, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Land of the Loon (Audio CD)

If you are a mountain/lake person like me, you will absolutely love this cd. I heard it while visiting a store in the Adirondack north country, and it literally brought me to tears. Now that I'm home, I love to listen to it. To me, it perfectly captures the mood of the place I love- truly a moving, awesome piece of work. If you're a busy person and need to get "away" from it all for a while, get this cd. You WILL relax and be brought back to what's really important in life.

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely Stunning!!, December 6, 2006

This review is from: Land of the Loon (Audio CD)

I am a 13 years old and writing this review on my parents account.

This is a spectacular, soothing CD. I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys "earth sounds."

The first track starts and ends with a harmony of bird calls;and the loon, goose and other various bird calls sprinkle the rest of the beautifully composed tracks on this CD.

This CD is perfect for having on in the background while you read, because the music flows gently and does not distract you as you read. I find I read more smoothly, and quickly- yet still retaining what I read, while listening to this CD. I also draw and knit with it on.

This is definitely a CD to purchase!!
