Columbia Currents

Description

Fan and critic quotes: Wow what a great album. The atmosphere is compelling, the songwriting exquisite, a great ride. I really like the way (to me at least), the song The Peace You Keep gives the album a real landing place, if that makes sense: a real summation of the whole. …all in all, buy this record. You will not be disappointed. -Pete M. Such a labor of love, and it shows. There is eloquence in the poetic lyrics, and a rich unique texture in each song, keeping the listener simultaneously engaged and at ease. Nicely done. A body of work to be very proud of. -Jeri B.
