"As always, Rik has provided another outstanding sampling of his talent. This is a must have for any Rik Enmmett fan. I can't wait for his next one to come out!"

"cd is a collection of all original instrumentals in the jazz/classical mood and if you like swing shift you will love this cd and if you are a fan of peter white and jesse cook this is a must"
I have to agree with the other reviews

"I've been a Triumph/Rik Emmett fan for years. When I first learned that he was leaving Triumph to persue a solo career, THIS is exactly the type of album I expected (and was hoping for). Don't get me wrong - I thoroughly enjoyed Rik's first 3 solo albums (The Spiral Notebook has become one of my all-time favorites), but I was always entranced by his range and musicianship - the fact that the same Triumph album could contain a hard rock song, followed by a classical guitar instrumental (and one that will make any classical guitar-player's mouth drop in admiration) really show-cases just how versatile this guy is. Handiwork is a beautiful combination of the classical, and even to some extent jazz, prowess that Emmett embodies. The guitar work on this album is among the best I've ever heard, all wrapped up in Rik Emmett's own unique style (there's no mistaking that this is anything but a Rik Emmett album)."
