Customer Reviews:

Glen takes us to every musical corner of the globe.......2000-10-24

This album is a colourful array of music that lends itself to all cultures, composed for us through Glen's eyes. While each track may suffer from a little too much individuality, it proves a sheer fest for those with the wider consumption. In places such as 'Head for the Hills', he can be heard to convincingly shadow fellow Acoustic Meistro, Michael Hedges; so much to the point that they could be one in the same. A Beautiful album for the easy listener, and the aspiring guitarist.
