There is plenty to love in this album - the lyricism displayed on “My Foolish Heart” and “Ruby My Dear”, a version of “In a Silent Way” that Brian Wilson would love and an interpretation of “In My Room” that I think Miles Davis would have approved of; and, of course, John Coltrane’s formidable composition “Giant Steps”. The deft and tasteful ensemble-like accompaniment of drummer Chad Taylor and double bassist Dave Tranchina. Cathlene Pineda’s piano rhapsodic solo on “Jesus Maria” and more. This is one of the very few albums by a pedal steel guitarist that simply takes my breath away, and I, as surely will you, will treasure this record, returning to it again and again through the years, each time discovering something new.” ~ Susan Alcorn, Baltimore, Maryland

:+1: glad you liked it

@Still-One I’m now listening to their other album that’s on Qobuz. I’d forgotten that @PixelPopper had recommended it a couple of weeks ago and I’d never gotten around to listening to it. It’s great as well. Thanks again.

Just finishing up 3 1/2 hours listening to this. Not my usual, but very nice indeed.
