To Give Phil 4 Stars is Still Saying Something
Keaggy being my favorite guitarist, 4 is still a cut above most. Although I give Master and Musician and Beyond Nature 5 stars, I will have to give this one 4. Rivulets, Legacy, and Spend My Life With You are worth the price alone, but his rendition of Swing Low Sweet Chariot is a little cheesy. The sounds are a little sharper and less warm than Beyond Nature. But still an excellent listen and well worth the time. .


Woderful Music
I love to listen to Phil Keaggy as does my son who will often settle down only to the soothing acoustic riffs on "acoustic sketches" Definitely a a quality addition to any music collection
.


Acoustic Sketches
He far exceeded my expectations. I knew that Phil Keaggy was a wonderful guitar player but he really demonstrated his talent. He does not deliver average or even common sounds. Your expectations of how he will play will miss the mark because he demonstrates such a high level of skill. The CD is entertaining and at the same time keeps you wanting to hear the entire CD without stop. This is a real example of someone that loves to play and pushes the envelope of talent. I will buy more of Phil Keaggy. Can't wait to hear more from him. .


Supreme Acoustic Intelligence
All guitarists should own this. A box bursting with exquisite riff-candies infused to the max with Segovian proficiency, enharmonics, harmonics and unmatched style. If you pride yourself on acoustical guitar playing and haven't heard these pieces, consider yourself robbed. Mr. Keaggy is one of the, if not the, best acoustical guitarists in the world.


Play 'em and Sleep . . .
Great music to sleep, study, or relax by. Load this CD along with Beyond Nature, In The Quiet Hours, and Lights of Madrid on your iPod playlist, and enjoy a very relaxing sleep. As I've said before, you can't go wrong with these or any of Phil's work.
