CD Reviews

Outstanding album!!!

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I had this album many years ago & have been waiting for it to come out on CD. Thank goodness someone finally released it on CD! Mr. Bikel is certainly underated from a historical perspective, being that his talents & genius have always deserved much more exposure than they have ever been given during his career as a musician, actor, etc. I think people forget that Theo IS an EXCELLENT guitar player & composer & his collaboration on this album continues his high standard of excellence. This album is a must have for anyone who is a student of popular music in the 20th century. Mr. Bikel is to be commended for his good taste."
