    Love it! Have seen this guy performing at the Palm Springs Street Fair a couple of times now and just get a kick out of his street performance. His music is great too. Also purchase another of his CD's and sent it to a friend.

  • Best one yet!
    author: George

    This is my 7th Marston album and I think he is amazing. Not only because the wide variety of music styles that he performs, but you always find something new whenever you listen to the tracks...which is daily in my case!

  • I am mostly a "rock n roller;" AND have become totally mesmerized by Marston's e
    author: Simply the Best!

    My fiance and I battle over who gets to keep this CD in their car CD players. It's time to order another copy! (she wins too often!) Buy one for yourself and each of your best friends! Every CD collection should have this CD in it! Even a "rock 'n roller" like me! (other favorite artists include Metallica, Led Zeplin, Judas Priest, Dokken...) Marstons touch and feel is much more melodic and transfixing than the aforementioned BUT every bit as emoyionally intense! Thanks, Marston, for the hours of enjoyment! Matt Weyuker Yuba City, Calif.

  • Cello Rocks! Send in the Cellos!

    This CD provides the very best of electric cello and reveals new dimensions of this marvelous instrument.

  • I absolutely LOVE your CD's.
    author: Sheri Fraser

    I work in a hospital setting which can be very stressful and your music really helps bring that stress level down. I receive tons of compliments on your CD and even loaned it out to friends who also think it's wonderful. Thanks for all of the great music. I keep buying more. Keep it up!

  • Fantastic CD for my work in massage.
    author: Jim Davis

    I am always looking for good massage music. This is undoubtedly one of the best I have. I total over 50 CD's for my work and this one ranks right up front.

  • This is the 3rd CD by Marston I purchased, with good reason.
    author: Jamie O'Neil

    Words cannot express the brilliance of Marston's music. it's music to be carried away by - romantic, emotional, meticulous. It's as though the whole universe is singing through the musician. I highly recommend this or any music by Marston Smith. I have 3 of his CDs now!

  • I love this album! I think it is the "best of Marston" and love his other music
