Editorial Reviews

John Dilliberto, Billboard Magazine

"The Gordon’s have juiced up the tribal groove! Their melodies are prettier and their rhythms are more compelling."

Product Description

Native-American Flute and Incan Pan Pipe melodies soar over Tribal Drums from around the world, Guitars, Keyboards and Nature Sounds (with wolf, eagle, coyote and humpback whale). Following up their best seller, Sacred Earth Drums, the Gordons take you deeper into their healing Shamanic journey to the heart of rhythm. Feel the compelling beat of Mother Earth – move your body and join the dance for the reverence of life!

4.0 out of 5 stars Very good new age-native fusion, June 9, 2005

Discount the self-important blather from "professional" drummers and First Nation/Capitolized Ethnic Group people you see here and buy this CD if you enjoy better quality new age music in a native vein. This CD and its highly successful predecessor was NEVER meant to be a hard-core exploration of genuine Native American drumming, flute or chanting, though it masterfully incorporates such music alongside other simple nativist percussion. Yes, persons looking outside the world music (or new age) genres for actual Native chanting and drumming may be disappointed, but it never hurts to open your ears to new things. But if that's too hard and you crave the "real thing," may I suggest Tokeya Inajin, Dik Darnell or Carlos Nakai.

A true masterpiece of well thoughtout music to rest the soul or make it dance. The drums are well positioned in the music score to allow other instruments to flow without competition.

Do not miss this!

5.0 out of 5 stars Sacred Spirit Drums, May 23, 2000

This review is from: Sacred Spirit Drums (Audio CD)

Though only 1/8th Cherokee, this album stirs something deep within me. It's beat and melodies are soothing yet haunting. I don't tire of it as is often the case with other CD's that get played over and over. You continually hear things that were not there, or were un-noticed before. A work of art and a peak into the Sacred Realm. Hats and headresses off to the Gordons.
