5.0 out of 5 stars Another exceptional effort by Paul Speer and friends., August 26, 2009

This review is from: Wonders (Audio CD)

I have been a follower of Paul Speer for 2 decades now, and although I enjoy his "style" of musicianship personally, I am sure others will/do also. Previous to "Wonders" there was "Oculus", which took the listener on a trip through the Mediterranean (Mr. Speer also shot a music DVD for this CD by the same name) that very well captured the moment(s) for anyone who has been to Italy. Now there is "Wonder", and from the sound of it, It is a repeat effort, and a perfect compliment to the previous CD. I only hope that Paul Speer will see fit to film another DVD to again capture the moment of sound into visual. If you enjoy great guitar work, flutes, percussion, keyboards, and a few soothing vocals, then Wonders is a can't miss CD.

On his latest album Wonders Paul Speer and new partner Paul Lawler one embarks on a journey around the world.With its volcanic opener Krakatoa to the arid deserts of Gobi to mountain of Denali to the river Ganges and Ruins and Temples to the Rain-forest.You can almost visualize every track.This is one album you can listen to over and over with out getting tired of.Each time you listen you will find something new in every track.The overall feel is more oriental.All in all a very relaxing and soothing album.I hope that this partnership between Paul Speer and Paul Lawler will last for a very long time.

When you look at the sleeping baby
You understand how life is fragile.

What is the album "Wonders" dedicated to? This is an exciting journey through the awe of ancient places of our Planet Earth. Three wonderful musicians - Paul Lawler from the United Kingdom, Paul Speer from the USA and Satine Orient from France met via the Internet in order to create this unique project.

Well-defined and sometimes even strict Paul Speer's guitar confidently leads the listener on the wings of the inspiring journey and sets a rhythm. The delicate flutes and soft keyboards of Paul Lawler are skillfully combined with it and harmonize the music of the album "Wonders". Various ethnic tunes and Satine Orient's charming voice brings life into this project. And as a whole "Wonders" has a completeness. It creates a perfect environment for visual journey, relaxation, healing and meditation.

"Wonders" gives a look at this planet as a beautiful place for each human being living. It assists us to realize the uniqueness and interconnection of various cultures and nations of our planet. They are very different yet they are all the children of our Common Home.

What else can the music of the album "Wonders" say? Listen to this album and maybe it will tell you something very particular and deeply personal.
