Only by Tommy Emmanuel

 Album Rating: (5 of 5 stars)

Review Comments: Love the talent of this guy - purchased it for my father for Father's Day; he's a professional musician and he was impressed with his style.

Still playing this CD years later...

 Album Rating: (5 of 5 stars)

Review Comments: Not only holds up to repeat listening, but becomes richer with familiarity. Beautiful playing and compositions - hard to believe it's a solo guitarist. More than highly recommended, for anyone.

Only

 Album Rating: (5 of 5 stars)

Review Comments: The album is a marvelous, enjoyable example of the uncanny abilities of Tommy Emmanuel. He must be heard to be appreciated; this album allows him to be appreciated over and over again.

Worth repeated listenings

 Album Rating: (5 of 5 stars)

Review Comments: I was in search of a great instrumental guitar CD and happened upon the name Tommy Emmanuel during my search; I'm sure glad I did. I wanted a CD that I would enjoy listening to as many times as I have with Masters of Acoustic Guitar and Sounds of Wood & Steel.

Listening to this CD has made me an instant Tommy fan. This CD has an excellent mixture of soothing and goosebump inducing tracks (the mark of a great CD in my book). I can't tell you how many times I've listened to track 3, Mombasa. I am quite certain I will own many more Tommy Emmanuel CDs. If you enjoy instrumental guitar, I would not hesitate to buy this one.

Astounding

 Album Rating: (5 of 5 stars)

Review Comments: Only a handful of recordings demonstrate the level of musicianship that Mr. Emmanuel provides here. He accomplishes the rare feat of communicating true emotion with his instrumentals. The range covered includes somber reflection all the way to humor that might be described as silly, for lack of a better term. Sprinkled in liberally are feats of technical wizardry that had me frozen in slack-jawed amazement. To sum up, I would describe his playing overall as daringly brilliant (And I don't toss around the word "brilliant" at all often).

Technique and projection aside, all the compositions are his own, and his style of presenting and resolving melodies is impeccable. Further, the fidelity of the record (in Pacific Microsonics HDCD)is as good as any I've heard.

I once found a copy of the Impressions' Greatest Hits in a pawn shop for $5. That was the best money I ever spent for recorded music. "Only" comes in a very close second.
