An acoustic instrumental Classic........2007-06-18

A perfect balance between cutting edge technical ability and just a wonderful sense of melody and rhythm - which I suppose you'd have to call genius. Some people have said Don Ross is the greatest guitarist in the world, and though I don't get into those kinds of pronouncements, I do find myself thinking that kind of thing when I play Passion Session. Beyond all that, it's a complete album, organically whole, without flaws or filler - which should qualify it as a classic of instrumental acoustic music - so, without doubt, worthy of the five stars I can give it in this review. Fingerstyle does not get better.

This album was everthing that I thougt it would be. Don Ross has great feeling for his instrument and music. It's a must to own.

Ross's Fingerstyle Technique Is Amazing!.......2006-12-29

Don Ross is quite simply one of the finest fingerstyle guitarists on the planet. [He is the only artist to win the prestigious National Fingerstyle Guitar Championship--twice!] In the liner notes Ross says, "It has taken me all these years (more than 30) of trying to get inside the instrument to realize just how many different capabilities it has. I try to use the whole instrument, to make the guitar a small orchestra." Whether he applies this approach to upbeat material like "Klimbim" and "Tight Trite Night" or more reflective pieces like "Berkley Springs" and "With You in Mind," Ross's technique is impressive. Even more amazing is the liner notes disclaimer: "No artificial reverb, effects or overdubbing were used. What you hear is what you get!" And what you get is a guitar player who ranks right up there with Leo Kottke, Michael Hedges and Adrian Legg. This is Ross's first of three stunning albums for the Narada label. If you are unfamiliar with his music, this is an excellent place to start. [Running Time - 45:39] HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Best Acoustic Guitarist Player & Composer Around.......2004-11-01

In my opinion, Don Ross is the best acoustic guitar player and composer I have ever heard. This album is all good tunes and a few great ones.

I am not sure the background behind "No Goodbyes", "Give me Seven Reasons", and "Not Enough Time", but I believe they where written for Don's wife. IMHO, there are some of the most moving songs I have ever heard.

Music is a very personal thing, so I have no idea if you will like this or not, but I encourage you to try it.

This is a cd of fantastic acoustic playing, I've listened to so much 'guitar music' lately...however, when I heard Klimbim for the first time, I was speechless. That song was like an incredible breath of fresh air for guitar oriented music. You won't be disappointed!!
