 | A Winter's Solstice, Vol. 4 [Read More ...] Description: In 1993, Windham Hill Records released its fourth album of seasonal music recorded by the label's artists and unavailable in any other collection. Only a few of the tracks on A Winter's Solstice IV lend credence to the label's unfair stereotype as the home for new age background ... |
 | Sound of Wind Driven Rain [Read More ...] Review: Echoes of the Future:This is the album that broke the six year long hiatus that came after the poor reception for Opening of Doors (I'm not counting the 1993 Retrospective). One could tell at that time that Ackerman was looking for a new creative direction. I felt that, in dedica... |
 | Returning: Pieces for Guitar 1970-2004 [Read More ...] Description: Guitarist Will Ackerman has often re-recorded his own songs, coming back years later with new interpretations and perhaps more refined techniques. Returning, however, consists entirely of new recordings of songs from the Ackerman archives. The founder of Windham Hill records, thi... |
 | Pure Will Ackerman [Read More ...] Superior Ackerman:Like all Will Ackerman's recordings, this one is four-oh! Soothing, ethereal guitar rythms and melodies. I listen to these in the evening after a hard day and doing so really helps take the edge off. |
 | Hearing Voices [Read More ...] Description: The founder of Windham Hill Records, Will Ackerman has stretched his sound occasionally with different instrumentation, but Hearing Voices is an entirely new approach. Picking up on his uncredited production of Samite's Stars to Share album, Ackerman enlists a group of singers th... |
 | A Windham Hill Retrospective [Read More ...] Very Relaxing: I find this to be very relaxing & easy to listen to! I first had this when it first came out as an LP, but haven't had a means to listen to it for quite some time untill i finally bought the CD. I highly recommend!! |
 | Windham Hill Classics: Angels [Read More ...] Little Boring:I got this CD for massage sessions. I thought it would be close to Steve Harplen's "Gift of Angels", but it wasn't. There are vocals on track #2, and the CD is only 37 minutes long. |
 | A Windham Hill Wedding Album [Read More ...] Great album for a contemporary wedding:This album was perfect for our wedding ceremony. Loved it! |
 | The Opening of Doors [Read More ...] This is my favorite Will Ackerman:I guess it's all in the eye of the beholder. This was my first Will Ackerman album and it remains my favorite. I like the electric guitar and all of the other instruments that accompany his playing on this one. |
 | Conferring with the Moon: Pieces for Guitar [Read More ...] Review: Five Stars for 'Moon':I like mellow New Age music, although I prefer the more electric, rowdy fusion music. But still, when a special album comes out that really shines as a masterpiece, you have to give The Devil his due. Conferring With the Moon is such a special masterpiece.... |
 | Pure Will Ackerman [Read More ...] Includes the bonus track "Marley's Song". |
 | Winter's Solstice, Vol. 2 [Read More ...] Best Solstice:I believe this is the best of the Solstice series. The "Greensleeves" interpretation is very unique. I like it. What makes this a great CD is the overall quality of the music. |
