CD Reviews

Awe inspiring.

"This cd has to be at the very top of "My favourite instrumental albums of all time" list. You certainly don't have to be a John Denver fan to love and appreciate this music,..but if you are a John Denver fan, then you are in for one hell of a treat. Not only do you have Brad's gorgeous guitar, but he is joined by other amazing musicians to create the most wonderful atmospheric tribute album I have ever heard."
Soft guitar melodies offer a unique tribute to John Denver

"As in his previous releases, guitarist Bradley Powell, AKA The Candlelight Guitarist, offers a new CD rich with gentle, pleasing guitar melodies. In this instance, however, rather than featuring original music, Powell presents guitar arrangements of well-known songs from the legendary John Denver. For John Denver fans, this CD is a must-have, as it is a sweet, fitting tribute to commemorate the 10-year anniversary of Denver's death. However, anyone who appreciates mellow, relaxing guitar sounds will likely enjoy this CD as well. In fact, because Powell brands each song with his own unique style, some of the tracks are not even immediately recognizable as Denver hits--when you listen more closely, however, you'll hear the classic Denver melodies combined with Powell's more new-agey take. If you are looking for music for meditation, relaxation, or other types of quiet moods, this CD is likely to be a good choice, particularly if you are a John Denver enthusiast."

"The Candlelight Guitarist (AKA Bradley Powell) continues to release CDs of music for the soul, for reflection, for the quiet times. In this newest CD GOLDEN EAGLE: John Denver Instrumental Tribute he has gathered a number of fine musicians to sit with him and recall some of the nostalgic and tender ballads written and performed by John Denver. It is indeed a tribute, for not only has Powell collected and performed the favorite Denver classics, he has produced a selfless homage to one of this country's great songwriters. This beautifully produced and recorded album has Powell in his prime - the sound from his guitar is free from finger noise and blends perfectly with the various musicians he invited to join him in this collection.



The songs include Rocky Mountain High, Leaving on a Jet Plane, Take Me Home, Country Roads, Annie's Song, Sunshine On My Shoulders, For You, and the title song Golden Eagle. In Powell's hands the music soars, touches warm memories, and once again demonstrates the quiet genius of John Denver. This is yet another fine recording from the man who prefers to simply be called 'The Candlelight Guitarist'. Grady Harp, November 07"
