5.0 out of 5 stars
Sweet music from a great guitarist,
This review is from: The Song Within (Audio CD)
Everyone who knows about Phil Keaggy's playing recognizes his virtuosity. "The Song Within," an instrumental recording designed to showcase the rich sound of McPherson acoustic guitars, demonstrates not only Keaggy's virtuosity but also his amazing musicianship. His ability to create and recreate his own music with unpretending excellence is what make this CD so enjoyable.
The moods are mostly mellow but also include a funky jam (Early One Day), a few upbeat tunes (Wow's the Weather, The Blue Trail, Addison's Talk), a little ragtime (Water Day), a couple short ditty's (Trailwalker, McPhernought), and my personal favorite, the catchy and haunting Noah's Shuffle. "The Song Within" is not going to be Keaggy's most critically acclaimed recording, but it is delightful and a very worthy addition to his remarkable catalogue of instrumental acoustic guitar recordings.

Great acoustic album, but no Beyond Nature,

This review is from: The Song Within (MP3 Download)
Another great Keaggy acoustic album. The McPherson guitars really sound great. Nothing will ever compare to his Olson's, but still wonderful guitars, and some cool tunes on here. Some favorites: Wow's the Weather, Secure (although this one sound a bit weird...maybe it's the drum machine track or the mixing, but still a very cool song), Early One Day (cool groove!), and Noah's Shuffle. The title track is pretty good too.
Overall, great acoustic effort by one of the true acoustic masters of all time, and a wonderful gentleman to boot. For me, it still doesn't hold a candle to his "Beyond Nature", which I would consider the best acoustic album of all time.

Phil Keaggy moves beyond nature and finds the song within.,

This review is from: The Song Within (Audio CD)
Phil Keaggy is the Master and Musician. In my humble opinion, of Phil Keaggy's 40 or so CDs, Beyond Nature is his best work. The Song within echos a close second. The liner notes even mention that the tunes have a Beyond Nature feel to them. This CD is acoustic guitar playing at its very best. The CD will bring a sense of "calm" peace to the soul. In a very mixed up world, this CD is worth having as it provides pure listening pleasure! Calm down, sit back, and enjoy the joyful sound of Phil Keaggy at his best and find the song within. MAD
