Refreshing solo acoustic stylings

"I suppose if there was a successor to the legendary Michael Hedges, the mantle would most likely have passed on to another Michael;

Michael Mucklow.

His stylings embody the same ethereal feel, to his playing that many of us found so engaging in Hedges.

Hedges in his earliest days blew the roof off that silly "New Age" concept. Mucklow does much the same in his alternate tunings and beautiful arrangements.

I can't begin to speak to the technical side of his playing. But as a friend once said to me "Good is where you find it."

and I found it here.

So sit back, find yourself a nice place you wish to visit and let Michael take you there on a lovely musical journey that sounds every bit as rewarding as the turns that another Michael gave us years ago."
