CD ReviewsInteresting acoustic guitar music 07/10/2000 (5 out of 5 stars) "I bought Teja Gerken's CD after hearing him at a concert. Sometimes when you listen to a CD after a live performance you can be disappointed - however, that is not the case with this CD. This is great acoustic guitar music, but unlike a lot of acoustic guitar CDs that have almost the same rhythm in every song, the tempos are mixed in these songs. Teja plays styles from Celtic to African. I think Nairobi is the most interesting song on the CD. Whenever this CD is playing, people always ask who is the artist. I plan to buy more as gifts." Inventive writing for fingerstyle guitar Sven | 10/24/2000 (4 out of 5 stars) "Highly recommended! Its all fingerstyle instrumental and I believe all but one are originals. Very creative and listenable compositions, imho some of the best I've heard, in a smorgasbord of tunings. Some of the tunes are not as strong as others, but there's enough really great stuff here to make it definitely worth owning. My favorites are "Her Red Hair", "The Westside" and "Darjeeling.""
