5 out of 5 stars Sweet and Lovely, with Gentle Tension and Drive.......2007-06-14

Ken Bonfield's "Homecoming" is just a sweet and lovely CD. It doesn't suffer from the aimlessness or too too sweetness of some music of its type. The music here has tension and drive -- it has intelligence, it has direction, but it is also very warm and soothing.

Highly recommended.

5 out of 5 stars Perfect background music.......2001-11-07

I play this CD often when I have friends over. It is unobtrusive enough to allow for conversation yet engaging also. The music never fails to elicit comments from my guests. It sometimes stops conversation - with remarks like "This is lovely - who is it?"

5 out of 5 stars The best yet from this fantastic guitarist.......2000-03-23

Ken Bonfield may be the best acoustic guitarist recording today in the genre of accessible melodic music. HOMECOMING is an artistic triumph of the highest degree. The music is warm, friendly, and highly evocative. Ken receives excellent suuport from accompanists, but his acoustic guitar is what anchors this album. Many of the songs are set at a relaxed pace, but this music is much more than a "relaxation" recording (not that there's anything wrong with that). The folk/pop sensibility at work makes the music so appealing that you're missing out if you don't actively listen to this the first time. Ken is a real pro at blending the instruments just right and getting the arrangements tight as a drum.

Playing HOMECOMING is like asking your best friend over on a cool summer night and sitting on the back porch with a glass of wine or a beer, alternately talking and watching in silence as the stars come out. It's an emotionally rewarding experience and one guaranteed to leave you feeling better than you did before. Whether he's playing a more laid back and serene tune or one with some get up and go (in his own rural/backroads style), you'll be glad you spent some time with Ken.

5 out of 5 stars Exquisite guitar instrumentals, with captivating songs.......1998-10-15

Ken Bonfield reaches a new level with this album. With the assitance of seasoned pros like Michael Mannring and Grant Geisman accompanying him, Bonfield provides instrumental music that is both relaxing, enchanting and at times haunting. If you love ambient music, this is a must have.

Acoustic guitarist Ken Bonfield's third recording is a subdued, reflective affair conceived with cold nights and fireplaces in mind. The album's 13 tracks (though only 12 are mentioned in the liner notes) are mostly unaccompanied pieces performed on classical guitar that exude the requisite warmth and pensive resonance appropriate for the season. Three selections, in slightly reworked fashion, are borrowed from his previous albums: "The Passing" and "Wiseman's View" from Homecoming, and "Farewell" from Mystic Morning. Four others are gently realized holiday warhorses, from "Greensleeves" and "Hark! The Herald Angels Sing" to "Silent Night" and the unacknowledged album-closer, "Auld Lang Syne." The rest reflect Bonfield's low-key comfort zone of quiet introspection and uncomplicated melodies. Anyone seeking awe-inspiring technique should look elsewhere, yet Bonfield succeeds in offering a pleasant audio diversion nicely suited for chilly holiday-season evenings. --Terry Wood

5 out of 5 stars Enchanting winter music for the holidays!.......1998-12-13

As a follow-up to his Spring release, "Homecoming," Bonfield again draws upon his talented friends, Michael Mannring, Grant Geismann and Jerry Goodman, surrounding himself and his tunes with a most capable crew. Warm and charming at times, haunting and enchanting at others, Bonfield's collection of both original music and tried and true winter classics is a pleasure to listen to. Never over-done, Bonfield and his collaborators lend tastey, engaging arrangements to his melodies. This is one holiday album that I can listen to daily without tiring of it. With two great albums under his belt this year, and his budding collaboration with some of the best players in the business, I can't wait to see what Bonfield comes up with next.

4 out of 5 stars Wonderfully relaxing, like.a musical cup of morning coffee........1998-12-13

In his maiden voyage first release, Bonfield does a very admirable job of putting together some great instrumental guitar music. Praised by reviewers around the country for his unique flavor of finger-style guitar playing, Bonfield's best attribute is his ability to create memorable melodies. Certainly befitting its title, "Mystic Morning" is a great way to start out a morning. It's like a musical cup of coffee that will put you in a great frame of mind for the rest of the day.
