4.0 out of 5 stars A drop of magic, March 7, 2000

By	Neil Green (Nashville, TN USA) - See all my reviews

This is one of Keiko's earliest releases, if not the first. Despite this, it reveals her amazing musical talent, her unique piano playing, and her most distinct style that combines different musical influences. All of these attributes are carried into her later work too. About half of the songs in this CD contain lyrics, and most of these fall one notch below the others, thus 4 stars not 5. If you love music, you must know Keiko's brand.

4.0 out of 5 stars A talent whose music draws me in, February 17, 2009

By	Leon the Writer "Leon" (Southern California) - See all my reviews

Keiko Matsui is a major player in contemporary pop/jazz/new age. She has a funky and lyrical approach that always surprises, especially in her later all-instrumental albums. She is tender, cheeky and deep.

3.0 out of 5 stars I've only heard one song..., January 11, 2000

By	Amanda Dewey (st.paul, mn) - See all my reviews

I've only heard one song; "paper spirit", but that song is pretty good. I only gave the CD a three though because I don't want to judge before I've heard.
