5.0 out of 5 stars More Lyman magic, May 26, 2003

This review is from: Pearly Shells (Audio CD)

Arthur Lyman was such a talented musician. He never got the kind of deep respect he deserved because his music was truly "music" and not just whatever sound was popular at the moment. Listen to his haunting beautiful sounds on the vibraphone and you're transported to a more gentle time and place. His skill on vibes and marimba are fabulous! And he played a pretty mean set of congas to boot. Great sidemen in his group, too. Always beautiful sounds from his pianist. And Chang on percussion was always an adventure. Arthur Lyman was a beautiful person making beautiful music. His passing in 2002 was a loss to the music world and just because he was an incredibly wonderful person. He will be missed.

HOT MIX "karenkellock" (Southwest Desert) - See all my reviews

I rank this as one of the highest in the Arthur Lyman must-have collection of islands exotic. It's the clean sound of mambo and nature, a magic vacation. This is excellent music for any mix.
