Album Description

The first rays of sunlight pierce the morning mist, revealing a serene glade hidden deep within the forest. The gentle melodies of David Gordon's piano float through the trees, as birdsong and a bubbling stream seem to join in. The meadow awakens to the whisper on a silver flute and the pure tones of Steve Gordon's acoustic guitar. Relax and visit this peaceful place in the forest, anytime you desire peace of mind.

5 out of 5 stars Complex serenity.......1999-02-03

David and Steve Gordon have converged the art of creativity, e.g. musical spirit, with Nature's sounds of life in this phenomenally peaceful collection of sound. Their skill has remained colorfully competent, bringing the listener into the cool forest of notes, gurgles and chirps. Highly recommended.

5 out of 5 stars This CD is a must for those who crave "environmental music"........1999-01-08

I bought the cassette tape verison of this work several years ago. I wanted to have some background music for at home activities such as: drawing, reading, and meditation.

I own about 30 other CDs and tapes of this kind of music. Misty Forest Morning is by far the best of the lot.

This very calming mix of flute, guitar, and water sounds will propel you instantly into a theta state.

Don't leave your body without it!

5 out of 5 stars Music that grabs you.......2006-10-01

The very first time I heard Acoustic Alchemy was went someone did a boring presentation at work. The most exciting thing about the presentation was the music for their powerpoint yawn. I don't even remember what the presentation was about, but the music has stuck with me. Hearing Overnight Sleeper got me hooked. I have taken my CD with me to listen to when I do chemo for breast cancer, it certainly makes me feel even more alive.

4 out of 5 stars Great Listen.......2005-10-05

I have only been listening to this group since July 2005, so I can't pretend that I am some sort of veteran listener, but I do know that since I first heard them, I've been hooked.

Our family has a 25 minute videotape of old home videos taken by my grandfather and others from 1950-1962. I borrowed the tape and when I asked what music was playing over the video (as it was silent), Acoustic Alchemy was the reply.

Casino, If Only, Drake's Drum, Ballad for Kay and Natural Elements (the video opener) now all remind me of seeing my aunts/uncles as little kids and seeing my grandparents actually look young on grainy old film, so this CD now has a personal meaning to me.

Besides all that, its just simply great to listen to...

Casino is by far the best track in my mind...

5 out of 5 stars One of their best - buy it!.......2003-06-15

This will immediately make you forget every problem you are having today. Relaxing, melodic, soothing - much like the title indicates. Like a waterfall, rain, whatever - it's great. One listen to Overnight Sleeper & I loved this CD, you will too.

5 out of 5 stars Another great experience with AA.......2002-08-05

After falling in love with Acoustic Alchemy, I sampled their old CDs and happened to like this one very much. Immediately bought it and find it matching my taste of music. The best track has to be 'If Only'. Such a soothing and relaxing song. Actually, they're all very good. Come and join this wonderful experience!

4 out of 5 stars 2nd best AA release ever!.......2001-01-23

Up until the release of "The Beautiful Game", this CD stood alone as the best of the AA catalogue. It takes the listener on a voyage of relaxation and enjoyment!. The stand-out track has to be "If Only" which has been a mainstay in my playlist for years. Great stuff!!!

Album Description

In January 2001, we released our Lord of the Rings music tribute song, "Tolkien (The Hobbit & Lord of the Rings)" to MP3.com. Within a month, the song skyrocketed up the charts to #14 of the MP3.com charts out of over two million songs!

Two years later, the Brobdingnagian Bards are at last completing a music CD dedicated to the JRR Tolkien's. This album is soundtrack, if you will for the books, filled with entirely original Lord of the Rings music. It is a mostly instrumental album that aspires to show our memories of the Lord of the Rings music world.

If you enjoy the music of JRR Tolkien, consider checking out the album that started it all--Songs of the Muse which features the original release of our #1 hit song that is still the most-popular Celtic song on MP3.com, "Tolkein (The Hobbit & Lord of the Rings)".

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars The lads' best yet!.......2006-08-08

This CD is the Bard's best yet. This time the guys are playing it straight, no jokes, goof offs, or silliness. The songs are heart felt and wonderful. My favorite is the song of the Ents.
This CD is where you really get to hear the lads as MUSICIANS.
They were/are always great entertainers, but this is where their real musical talent comes to the fore. Great harmony, great folk art, and melody. Buy This!!

5 out of 5 stars Tolkien would be proud.......2005-05-14

I cannot think of any group who could do what the Brobdingnagian Bards do-that is, to capture the spirit of such a classic and record it. This album is a great addition to any Tolkien fan's library. If you are new to Tolkien, or spent hours a day travelling through Middle Earth again and again, you'll love this CD. I know I do! :)

5 out of 5 stars Excellent!.......2004-11-06

A 'must have' for all Tolkien fans!

I didn't know about the existance of The Bards until I attened the 'North Georgia Celtic Festival'. They were there and I heard them play several songs on this CD and several of their others. When I saw this CD being sold indoors, I immeadiately wanted it, being the LotR fanatic that I am. Bought the CD and had them sign it also... Probably the best thing I've done with my money in months...

Personal favorites include: The Psychopathic, Chronic, Schizophrenic Gollum Blues, Weathertop, The Heart of Fangorn, and Now It's Time To Go (Bilbo's Farewell Song). The instrumental pieces are awesome also... I feel like I **was** in Fangorn, Lothlorien, Moria... everywhere they covered in their lovely music.

5 out of 5 stars Still Loving the Bards!.......2004-06-20

I'll have to admit that the first time i listened to this CD i thought it was a bit strange. But the songs grew on me, and i love it as much as anything else the Bards have done. (Which is a lot!) Legolas is a bit silly, but other than that one track the album is great fun to listen to, and you can really get the feeling that this is an album the Bards did out of their love for the books, and defenitely not something they just did to make money or jump on the bandwagon.

5 out of 5 stars Magical Memories.......2004-04-08

I will grant the nay-sayer that this album is not for everyone, but having all of the Bards albums, I would give this one a well-earned "Huzzah" any day. The sheer scope of the album, the fact that it is entirely original music/lyrics, and the growth it represents make it a winner.

But that's all academic stuff. From a listener's viewpoint, this album is magic. The sheer lyrical beauty of songs like "Ring of Hope" and "Heart of Fangorn"...the joyous abandon of "Hobbit's Dance"...the musicality of "Moria"....

My advice is buy it and see for yourself--I have four. :)

      5 out of 5 stars 5A ~ An Adorable Acoustic Aldo Album.......2007-05-13

      An instrumental album that has both upbeat Jazz grooves and low-key New Age soothing melodies, all with wonderful acoustic guitar playing by Aldo. This album's New Age Jazz sound is just wonderful. It should get a lot of playing time in your office and/or at home when you need to unwind! Not quite sure who to compare Aldo with...he has his own unique guitar sound. At times Aldo's playing on "Close to You" reminds me of Govi (Tracks 2 & 3) and at other times he sounds a little like Peter White (tracks 4 & 9), Thom Rotella (Track 6) or Chris Spheeris (Track 10). Aldo on this album sounds nothing like the blues/rock guitarists Santana, Satriani, Clapton, or Atkins mentioned by the previous reviewers (at least not to my ears).

      5 out of 5 stars Aldo's music is beautiful.......2005-02-08

      I first came across the Aldo music through the latest release of a CD called Passion by Soothingmusic.com. This CD was actually the 2005 release of Mehdi, that I happened to have all his CDs and enjoy them all very much. Having listened to the Aldo tracks (3 of them) so many times, I decided to have the full CD by Aldo which I got about a month ago. Aldo's music is beautiful and all tracks sound just great. I recommend this CD to all instrumental music lovers.

      5 out of 5 stars Excellent Guitar Music.......2004-07-03

      One of the Best Contemporary Guitar CDs I have ever heard.
      My Guitar Hereos are Chet Atkins, Jerry Reed, Andres Segovia, Julian Bream, John Williams, and I have to put Aldo in the class with the finer Guitarists.

      5 out of 5 stars Excellent Album! When is the next one!.......2004-05-28

      I like guitar music from Bill Monroe, Eric Clapton, Chet Atkins to Joe Satriani.
      It looks like I will have to add ALDO to the list.

      Just to wait for the slow fade up on Track 1, which is the title track, "Close To You" gives a sense of anticipation. Almost a tingle in the upper part of your spin and your ears can not wait to feel the strums of the strings. "Silent Star's" accompaniment gives a listener an Enya-like harmony yet adds an indescribable feeling to the music. Every one the ten tracks are an experience. I only wish that ALDO would give some indications to what inspired each song other than the title as a clue.

      If you were looking for a contemporary classical guitar album, on par with the skill, power of performance and creative genius as other performers like Yanni and Carlos Santana? This is the album for you. The album is excellent for background dinner music, relaxing, or other appropriate adult activities.
