Customer Reviews Very good It is a little lacking in variety and does not hold your attention all the way through. A very good accoustic guitar offering. LEGG is definetly a master guitarist, but his compositions are not up to the same standards. If you want to hear the benchmark in accoustic guitar virtuosity and creativity, check out BRUCE MATHISKE. He is an australien that might be the best ever on his instrument. I've been a guitar nut for 30 years or so and he is the best I have ever seen ( and I've seen many ). Stopped dead in my tracks Then they broke into Mrs. I was driving home from work on Sunday night, when on National Public Radio, Adrian was being interviewed. Jack's Last Stand. 20 seconds later I was pulling off the road to listen. I thought it incredible. The next morning I went out and bought all that I could find of his work, and always get his new stuff within a week of issue. I enjoyed the rest of the album as well. This and Mrs. Crowe's Blue Waltz are in my opinion his finest. Nice for a mellow time. very good In general I don't like accoustic music. I agree with the other reviews. And if it comes to guitar I prefer more crunchy Satriani, Johnson, Vai or Schenker. But Adrian Legg is the exception. Very subtle but with amazing technique and great feeling for melody he provides us with full blown songs. A real stunning experience for the ears and a very enjoyable listen. .
