Conferring With The Moon  - #456

Ackerman, William

1986 Windham Hill 1/1/86

A really fine New Age album.  Original, full of ying and yang, not a bland presentation but one with vitality and interest.  Only of my favorite New Age offerings. Why aren't there more like this one around?

1986 Narada/Equinox 1/1/86

Hard to say anything specific about this album.  No great stand out piece, but many of them have been used commercially for 'ease' music. Yet, it is an album that you want to listen too. The Narada Equinox series as a theme that is hard to resist.  Take this one with the others and you have a major genre and an enjoyable bunch of music

Quest Of The Dream Warrior - #500

Arkenstone, David

1995 Narada 1/1/95

Not of much interest.  New age with a theme but not much imagination.  No wonder New Age has fewer and fewer interested buyers every year.  New Age needs a shot in the arm and this album is not it.  There is a adventure story behind this music but it is much to explain it.  I could go well with science fiction and fantasy but the story has to be written.
