Surely one of the finest meditation albums of 2010, I know that Gratitude will fill your heart with, well, gratitude. From the gentle, languorous tones of 'Daybreak Appears,' with shimmering keyboards dancing devotion into the day to the nature-sounds-infused 'Long feathers in the Wind,' Gratitude inspires delicate waves of heart-opening bliss.Īctually, the nature sounds, recorded at Big Sur State Park, Sequoia National Forest and Joshua Tree State Park, infuse Gratitude with an overwhelming sense of the sacred. At over 71 minutes in length, there's ample time to go deep within. Gratitude is the perfect accompaniment for massage, meditation or slow form yoga. The overall effect is quintessentially New Age at its most sublime.

In addition, our friend Bobby Cochran contributes additional keyboards. They also played keyboards and Steve had some tasty guitar work. On Gratitude, they both showcase their considerable skill playing Native American flute, by far the dominant instrument. Steve Ryals &mdash Nationally Syndicated Music Reviewerĭavid and Steve are both multi-instrumentalists.
