This CD was re-mastered and re-released in Oct 2011, and there are a handful of the original CD's left with no compression, the way they were done in 1993 when the album first came out.
Many fans think this Reid's best "all-around" album. Features original compositions, songs & instrumentals on 6 & 12-string guitar, slide guitar, mandolin, bouzouki and one autoharp piece. 7 instrumentals + 12 songs showcase Reid's composing and lyrics. Folk, ragtime, baroque, Celtic, gospel, blues, ballads + funky songs.
Almost all solo, recorded direct-to 2-track digital with no edits, overdubs or multi-tracking, with few cameos from guest artists Lynn Rothermich, Moondi Klein and David Surette. 8 tracks use a partial capo. (marked *)
