Michael Hedges. Fantastic CD......Aerial B.....


Like to recommend a fabulous CD a fellow Audiogon member recommended,Michael Hedges Aerial Boundaries..sonically clean and musically engulfing.Simple miking and simplistic engineering makes this a "must have" for string listeners.

Any suggestions for "new age" strings artist?...I totally agree that Windhill recordings are sonically seductive without being saturated.West Germany engineers seems to get the balance right with each separate artist,no cookie cutter production here,each musicians strenghts and weaknesses are takin into account when the CD's are recorded.
You should give some William Ackerman discs a spin. David Darling(cello) has some incredible discs releases on Hearts Of Space. Also try the John Fahey album titled America.
Another of my favorites is Billy McLaughlin's cd Fingerdance. Hedges fans will not be disappointed.
The late great Michael Hedges.... I like "Aerial Boundaries" a lot, but actually prefer "Breakfast in the Field."
From up here in canada we have a fellow by the name of Don Ross who is a 5 time {Twice in the US} fingerstyle champion. His music is similar in a way to hedges. He has released an audiophile recording ; 96\24 direct to two track; that will amaze you all.The title is Huron street. I would say that you could buy any of his cds and not be disappointed. For the record I own all of the Hedges Cds. You must check out live on a double planet it is guarented to make your system shine and your head to spin.
