    author: Brian M

    Passing through the "Block in Orange" I was stopped in my tracks as I heard the most amazing sound ever...I bought his "Live" cd and took it with me to Italy where it got stolen...Now I'm back to get more.

  • Wish I had been there!!! AWEsome :-)

    In April of 2006 I saw Marston Smith perform at the Palm Springs street fair. His music could be heard above the brouhaha of the crowd. The closer I got the more his music took over my senses and drowned out every other sound. Mind you not because of volume, but because of its sheer beauty and quality. I bought one of his CDs on the spot, now this one and hope to eventually purchase more. If only he could spend more time on the East Coast... As for CD Baby, what a trip! I've been shopping online for years and have never had a more pleasant and even amusing experience. Kudos to Derek and his staff :-)

  • Marston has magic
    author: Terra

    If there ever was an artist that I admired, Marston is the person. I can't seem to hear enough of this CD. This man has magic in a most excellent way. His cello makes your imagination bend to its will, and leaves you gasping for more. I have listened to this CD about 20 in the last couple of weeks since I got it and I can only say that I am still amazed everytime I hear it.

    We bought this CD when we saw Marston Smith perform at the Palm Springs street fair and fell in love with his music. We always play the CD at our dinner parties and everyone loves it and asks what it is. We like it so much we're ordering another one of his CD's.

  • Very Enjoyable CD.
    author: SK Nichols

    We met Marston Smith in Arizona at a local art festival and purchased one of his CD's at that time. The second CD we purchased as a gift for a friend as we like his playing and music very much. The music on Marston Live is very contemporary and relaxing yet thought provoking. My husband and I love to play this CD when we have dinner parties as it is a wonderful background sound. Enjoy!
