I just hit my head on the desk when I nodded off during this tune.

Sounds like an instrumental version of Traffic's "Can't Find My Way Home."

Excellent! This is such a beautiful album. Thanks so much for playing this. Mellows me right out. :)

It's now March, and I still love this song.  I could listen to music like this all day, except I'd never get anything accomplished, apart from a beautific smile, a mellow attitude, and a bunch of cats sacked out in my room, grooving to it all.  Um, okay - I can't find the bad there...

Absolutely beautiful.

This guy is on par with Richard Thompson in the guitar skills category.

Mmmm - perfect winter music, with the snow falling softly and the world slowing down to enjoy the quiet...

Yessss.....

I like

Nice.

Reminds me vaguely of Michael Hedges.  I really like this song and his guitar work.  Nice!

Although I saw him play in the local catholic school in northern Ohio, to maybe 100 folks, when he was a local phenomenon around 1970, I guess I have no recollection of the show, per se. Strange, but his religious convictions really were not important, almost as if it does not matter. It's really fine that this station knows about and plays this music.

Great blending of guitar and fiddle!

cool.

Thank you for playing some Keaggy. Now maybe some Randy Stonehill?

Glass Harp played at my high school in Akron. Back then Phil was so cool. Today he is even better.

I remember him from my Jesus Freak days, too.  He is an amazing composer and musician.  Isn't there some Hendrix connection with him?

He's missing a finger?? That bumped this up another notch...

I remember him from my Jesus Freak days over 30 years ago.  Nice to see he's still around.

This entire album is excellent. I'm planning on seeing Keaggy in September. Can't wait.

Thank you so much for playing it. Needed  Phil to sooth my nerves today. :)

anyone know how he compares to keller williams with the looping? just listening to him play they sound like they are pretty similar

Somebody see Saint Patrick around here ?

Beautiful! I love bass lines under guitar and violins with no drums. Lots of Windham Hill artists used to do this.

Saw him use a loop to create an entire band...and while others are doing that also, he did it with skill and art...most incredible show I have ever seen!

I got to shake that missing-fingered hand and while he is a lovely man, it was kind of creepy...

Lovin' it. Go Phil, you nine-fingered phenom!

WOW !
