Review by MONK_JAZZ Nov 20, 2005 (edited over 4 years ago)
Relax your mind to this! Best guitar world music album I ever heard and I actually don't like guitar so much :)
A quote from the Music Week magazine: "Sounds as natural as a rainfall". And yes it really has an incredible intuitive flowing vibe.
