I love Hedges' instrumental guitar works. And I like to hear him sing. Nobody else sounds like him on the acoustic guitar and the microphone, and that is a good thing. One of a kind. When he incorporates the flute, keyboards, and other instruments into these melodious songs it all comes together to move me deeply. And don't be swayed by the guitar snobs regarding his singing. (And I am a guitar player.) Michael Hedges writes and sings wonderful lyrical songs. Most solo musicians wish they could capture the magic and beauty of his voice combined with his wide open guitar to create such beautiful works. He consistently executes his incredible guitar technique woven amongst his words. RIP MH.

5.0 out of 5 stars What can be said?, September 19, 1998

This review is from: Road to Return (Audio CD)

This is a wonderful album - from the heart and soul of a truly gifted artist. Yes, his vocals have an unpolished sound - and it only embellishes the brutal honesty and integrity of his work... I think the lyrics are esoteric only to those who lack sufficient imagination. New age? I hate that description. Honest? Yes, very! That is why we love you so, Michael. And to those who understand, no explanation is necessary.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not his best work, July 17, 2000

Hedges liked to try new things, but never really sounded "New Agey" except for this album. There are a couple of good songs, but if you are looking to buy your first Hedges album, you might try Aerial Boundries, Breakfast in the Field, or Oracle. Live on the Double Planet is also fantastic. This is the only Hedges disc I own that really never impressed me.
