Mrules Just want to say that I chose this album over 2Pac's Greatest Hits on iTunes...'nuff said...BOOM...(drops mic)

& I'm all the better for it. This is the perfect album for introverts. Whether you're reading / studying - alone, surfing the net - alone, or relaxing amongst nature - alone, fear not, this album will be your BFF, kindred spirit, &/or soul brother from another mother. I am haunted after listening to it. It's a rare debut masterpiece & a true desert island disc.

Bravo, 3 White Dudes + 1 Little Indian, Brav-O!
Favorite track: Wish The Children Would Come On Home.

John Cratchley Picked up on this from Dave Douglas' Greenleaf podcast 'A Noise From The Deep' (do check it out...it's terrific).I've listened to Wayne Horvitz since 'The Miracle Mile' and Zony Mash times...I think he's a wonderful Composer (especially for the Theatre - he composed haunting music for a production of 'Death Of A Salesman'...some of which is performed here).

Kenneth Pyron I find myself drawn to this album for unexplained reasons. The music is perfect with tea or coffee in the morning, not as a simple quiet album, but as an engaging, precise series of pieces that simply cause the listener to actively listen. Well recorded, extraordinarily well played and arranged from Wayne's music. Favorite track: 9/8.
