Most Helpful Customer Reviews
While I am Ms. Piano at home, my husband is Mr. Guitar. He was quite
shocked to find this CD in my collection. He rates Acoustic Alchemy very
highly. I bought it because I loved it at first hearing. I heard the Mr.
Chow cut and bought the CD immediately. This piece has a lilting rhythm and
an interesting mix of Oriental tunes and percussion. Quite unique and very
listenable (you should listen to the sample here.) The Red Dust and Spanish
Lace is Tex-Mex meets Flamenco. Very nice. Close your eyes and imagine a
fiesta in some border town. The Girl with the Red Carnation may be the
prettiest piece on the CD. All in all, varied and colorful music, relaxed
yet interesting. This must be Acoustic Alchemy's best. Every piece is a
winner, which is not the case with many CD's, where there is one hit only
and filler for the rest. If you love guitar, you are sure to love this one.
An old album, yes! But this music is timeless. The loss of Nick Web was a
blow to this planet and all of it's music listening inhabitants. We are
missing him and this album will help you appreciate and understand why!
I bought this on cassette when it first came out. The original art work was
a lot nicer. But, I suppose it's what's inside that really counts. This
disk is short, but has some great songs. The title track, Mr. Chow, and
Ricochet are the standouts on this CD...but, their isn't a bad track on it.
This recording is actually better than most of their later ones. This is a
good one!!!
