Album review:
"Simply a must for anyone who wants to hear as much great guitar as possible. Please consider this also a Breau review in general: Lenny was able to, with his monstrous fingerpicking and incomparable harmonics technique, effect the guitar's evolution in much the same way as Stanley Jordan's tapping did many years later. The differences are important: Breau's dynamics, tone quality, and rythmic vitality are -so much better- than tapping's tinny music-box tendencies,(and although it doesn't have any thing to do with the technical differences, Lenny never sold out0). No one yet has even -attempted- to be a Breau imitator,(or at least not come close enough to be recognized as one), in spite of all of the extra strings guys seem to be putting on their guitars lately,(Lenny ended up using a -high- A over E, but did much recirding on the usual six." -- fighthepower (Chicago, IL)
