Enlightening

By From the Batcave
I bought this album the first time back in the early 90s. R. Carlos Nakai had come to Duke for a live performance. I had never really heard native american music before, certainly not flute music. There were three children sitting in front of me aged about 4-9 and they were rambunctious. Within moments of Nakai starting to play the kids settled down and did not move for the entire concert. I myself felt enlightened, transformed and, honestly, as if I were in a trance. I was so relaxed tears washed down my face--but I was not weeping. I bought this album at the concert...as well as Canyon Trilogy. Some of the best writing, creativity, and relxation music around.
