My personal review and reflection:
Liona Boyd is known as "The First Lady of the Guitar". She is a superb classical guitarist. On this record she is mixing classical and modern music. Two of the tracks are written by Michael Camen. Eric is playing on "Labyrinth", and the combination of Eric's electric guitar an Liona's classical, is stunning. The album as an whole is soft and relaxing.
