“This is Will Ackerman’s first album, and sometimes, arguably, it’s one of his best. Keep in mind that this is a younger, brasher Ackerman, not very far at all from the modern fingerpicking traditions of John Fahey, Robbie Basho, and Leo Kottke. Rhythm, pattern, and melody line, played with the vigor of a good steel string. This album makes the connection between the west coast style and the more polished and controlled musician of the Windham Hill years.

Ackerman gives himself away in his titles - Like ‘Pink Chiffon Tricycle Queen’, ‘Slow Motion Roast Beef Restaurant Seduction’, and ‘What the Buzzard Told Suzanne.’ This isn’t about meditating to guitar music, it’s about playing, listening, and appreciating the find work of a player/composer who went on to make a very significant mark in new age and jazz music….”
