 Amazing! October 1, 2002
9 out of 9 found this review helpful
I bought this on a whim...completely unheard because I enjoy drumming...This is a wonderful recording...I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys drumming. As a meditative tool this recording takes me someplace deep inside myself. I can only hope that David and Steve Gordon's other albums have the same effect as this one!
 Not Authentic June 27, 2002

Same as my review for Sacred Spirit Drums. If you are not seeking the true sound of the music of American Indians, you may enjoy this on its own terms. Otherwise, the only thing American Indian about this album are the instruments. Otherwise, while fans of new-age dross may find something unique here to like, this is a cloying and annoying attempt that "whitens" true Native American music. Those are not our drumbeats, at least not the American Indian variety, so be warned.

Relaxing? Yes... but not your standard "massage music" May 10, 2002

This amazing album has earned its cult status.It somehow manages to transcend all of those other creative (new age or otherwise) compositions in this free flowing style. Many other artists have tried to imitate this album, but nobody seems to be able to get it just right. This album really does stand apart. Oh, and some of the nature sounds (bird calls, especially) are driving my cats wild! :-)
Drum as Healer May 20, 2001

This is one of my favorite Cds. Its magical and very healing. I do own another by this artist, but I like this one better. The nature sounds with rainsticks, flutes and drums is just fabulous. The songs have rich melodic beats.....a joy to listen to, and dance to as well, for that matter!! Drumming is being used these days in therapies as a tool of reconnection and wellness (see the book, "The Healing Power of the Drum" by Robert Lawrence Friedman). This Cd takes us to that connection! Its great.....highly recommended.

I found this CD to be compelling and evocative. Encourages one to walk in balance with the Earth Mother and brings to mind the sacredness of life and the Native American reverence for the Earth.
