5.0 out of 5 stars The greatest New Age album ever made., August 5, 2007

Yes, it is a lofty statement to be sure to call this the single greatest New Age album ever produced, but once you hear it, you hopefully would agree. Originally released as a two-CD set (with what is now called Silk Road 1), this groundbreaking audio odyssey (originally written for a documentary on the Silk Road connecting China to Japan), is awe-inspiring, moving, and ultimately transcendant. The final track of this epic tour-de-force, Tienshan, is the single greatest track I have ever heard of any kind of music. I have been motivated throughout my life by this entire album, particularly Tienshan. Big words, but it's a big album. I cannot recommend it highly enough if you like Tangerine Dream, Deuter or even Yanni. Kitaro, however, is in a class by himself. Dim the lights, close your eyes, and journey into the deepest realms of time, space and the human imagination with this monolithically beautiful album.

5.0 out of 5 stars Loved first one , love this one too ., November 27, 2002

Cann't tell you about recording quality of this edition - I have older one . This is the part 2 CD from " Silk Road " collection . And it stays with the tradition of first album : slow and deep , very relexing mood . If on some of Kitaro albums I have favorite parts and have to put them on "repeat" ," Silk Road " ( 1 and 2 ) I just listen to .
