This amazing debut and self title album is born out of a wonderful relationship these two excellent producers and musicians have realised in their time together. The music is simply charming and you will find yourself subdued and overcome by the secret powers of song and substance. It is music without extravagance or embellishment, everything kept as simple and as sweet as possible, yet the songs simply soar and take you to the lofty reaches of outstanding musical emotion. Each song having angelic and benignity tones and sensations, all are harmonious, all are exhibiting equivalence and always corresponding and constitutional to each other. Each song will leave you captivated, enamoured and fascinated.
This is a must buy for those times when you want to sit back and relax. I thought that I would only like a couple of the tracks on this CD, but after listening, I love it from beginning to end. Great music for relaxing on a hot summer day.
