Spacious Environment - Background Music.......2006-02-07

This piece has been a favorite for years. I put it on when I want to feel the space around me, when I need more space around me, within me. The thunder is gentle and the flute provides a gentle focus. I can sleep with this cd playing or just enjoy listening.

Stunning Soundscape.......2004-01-14

From the moment this CD starts, one can envision the deep shadowy canyons and ancient places where their instruments evolved. Fluid motion and sense of three dimensional space make this one of the finest experiences of Native American and Ambient music. If you like R.Carlos Nakai, you will enjoy Coyote Oldman.

Many artists seek to capture "spirit" in their artform - Michael Graham Allen and Barry Stramp have created something transcendant. Let this CD take you on a journey.

Thunder Chord.......2004-01-10

This cd is special. It is beautiful music. Upon the first time hearing this cd, I stopped my activity so I can concentrate on the flutes. The music is peaceful which brought a sense of calmness to the moment. I highly recommend this cd as well as Tranquil Harp by Paul Baker.

Oldman's Best.......2001-01-07

This is NOT just your ordinary Native American flute music. One of the earliest and still the best of the Coyote Oldman recordings, "Thunder Chord" is a haunting evocation of the timeless, of dimensions beyond the visible. Powerfully transcendental, this tape has been used to help AIDS and cancer patients find their own timeless core of Self.

"Coyote Oldman" was originally two performers: Michael Graham Allen, who reconstructs and plays archoelogical flutes of the Americas; and Barry Stramp, who mixed and digitally processed Allen's flute music. No synthesizers or samplers are used on this or previous Coyote Oldman recordings. Indeed, it was Stramp's genius with the digital recombining of Allen's flute playing that gave Thunder Chord its other-worldly beauty. Oldman after Stramp is pleasant, occasionally strong, but much more pedestrian. Thunder Chord is Coyote Oldman at its very best.

HIGHLY recommended!

Killer Oldman.......2000-06-21

This is "eyes closed" music, as Coyote Oldman will fill in the picture for you. I recommend this music specifically for meditation (sitting or walking). It's less beneficial as ambient sound, as it is somewhat ponderous and slow, but at the same time, fairly demanding of your attention. It has, I'm sure as the composer intended, a tendency to take you away. And under the proper conditions, this can be a good thing.

I like it, and play it often. But if I need to focus on something else, I probably will play something more like Evanson's "Desert Moon Song", which is more quitely melodious.

All-in-all, a great piece of music, and a great buy.
