    This album is phenomenal. It's lyrical, gorgeous acoustic instrumental music of the highest caliber. Compares favorably with the likes of John Reischman, Emory Lester, and Strength in Numbers. Highly recommended.

    Just bought this album on Bandcamp after watching David's phenomenal chord melody playing on his "Mandolin Mondays" blog.
    Highly recommended, I can only agree with the comments made above.
    In addition to being a great player he seems a very nice guy. I requested the transcriptions of his blog arrangements and he sent them within the day. Now I just need to practise for about a 20 years to sound half as good as he does...
