Magical and Inspiring!
Listening to the entire album makes one realize what magic Whalen can make on his own; sure he is a studio wizard with a synth, but these solo pieces are honest, intimate and completely enjoyable, making such frills unnecessary. These are pure, beautiful solos with heart, wherein the simple understated power of the music is immediate, real and transparent. New Age Voice
