    I hadn't posted this one before -- I think the other one was the one with Russ Freeman. I also have A Thousand Pictures, which was the first one I got. I remember hearing it in a gift shop in Sedona, AZ many years ago and asking the clerk what it was...

    Yeah, it's nice 'new age' type stuff. About the only 'gripe' I'd have is that the 'sound' doesn't vary much from song to song, album to album. Craig's guitar sound is much the same a lot of the time, and a little more variety would be nice. But it's great morning music. Glad you like it!

    Oh, and your check is in the mail. :cheesygrin:

    Yeah, she's a very talented young lady, and a real doll...

    So I listened to Junjo and thought the playing was incredible. The vocals seemed a little back in the mix, and I think I don't really dig the wordless "scat" singing style. Right this second, I'm listening to Radio Song from Radio Music Society and I really, really like it. It's strange what a difference actual words make to me.
