Harold Budd's latest cd is an absolute gem. Quiet, beautiful, ambient. Mostly piano, and .... space. Harold Budd knows how to work with silence and space like very few musician/composers. Rather than list song titles,info etc. let me simply cut to the chase. If you are interested in meditative, beautiful refreshment - musically, you mght sample this cd on Amazon as I did. If you do, bet you'll purchase it as I did. And, if you do you'll be pleased you did, as I am. Most highly recommended.

The godfather of ambient music gets high scores for his new CD entitled, In the Mist. His first solo project in a few years this is one of my favorites because of the serenity and soothing nature of the music. Characteristic of Budd's ambient style the melodies wax and wane in an effective manner enabling the listenter to either enjoy it by directly attending to it or play as soothing background music for pondering or conversing. I like all of the songs and bought two copies, one for my car and one for home. I enjoying listening to it in both environments. By the way, all ambient music is effective driving music because you can enjoy it without having to devote much attention to it.
