I agree with the previous reviews. Subtle accoustic guitar. Great melody and songs. With a litte help of Stuart Hamm and some amps he once again managed to produce an excellent listening experience. Even though its mainly accoustic guitar, on this CD the songs give a meaty, powerful and driving feeling to me. Adrian Legg is an accoustic-guitar Virtuoso. I'm more of a traditional hardrock shredding guitar fan. How comes I like his music? Even if I quote my admired Iggy Pop: "What does this mean? - I don't know!", this doesn't help either. But, however, Adrian just has it, and he can play it. Capturing Songs, which take you with them on their journey. With no more than an accoustic guitar. Incredible.

Adrian travels have taken him through northeast Tennessee a number of times and I have been seen him twice at a local, intimate music room, The Down Home. The first time we saw him, my wife and I sat mere feet away and were awed at his talent. After the very first tune, I remember commenting "If he tells us he can't play anymore tonight, I'd still feel I got my money's worth." See him live if possible, he's as funny a story teller as he is a talented guitar master.

another outstanding job by Adrian Legg. This man is a master of guitar. From alternate tunings to exceedingly fast fingers, this guy is awsome. If you ever get the chance, he plays at a Borders Bookstore in Schenectady, NY at least once a year, or just ask a Borders for a play list.

Lighthearted music. This man can take a guitar and manipulate it to speak to it's listeners. I'm not a jazz fan by any means, but I could listen to Adrian all day without tiring of his music. A CD to complete your collection.
