Simply Delightful

"I am delighted by this CD. Most of the songs bring a big smile to my face and to my soul. In general, the songs are simultaneously comforting and uplifting. I especially like Starlight Cafe, which is so much fun and has meaning on so many levels. For My Little Saints is also one of my favorites. This is different from many of Tom Kenyon's other CDs, but I really like it. All of his music/soundscapes are healing and uplifting.



These are Tom's own words about this CD from his website, www.tomkenyon.com:



"Songs of Desperation, Obsession, and Enlightenment



These songs, some of which I wrote over twenty years ago, are a kind of artifact. Culled from the foundry of my soul, they are the distillation of that strange process we call the self. Like a blacksmith that forges metal into usable things, I forge insight out of the desperation, obsession and illumination of my life. My tools are the hot searing heat of self-realization borne from the emotional cauldron of my deepest hopes and fears, mirrored so eloquently by the world and those around me. -- TK""

"I absolutely love Tom Kenyon and I think his stuff is amazing. That said, I would recommend that you get The Gandharva Experience if you really want to tap into the power that he offers. This one isn't my favorite."
