Recent Review: (Author: Tom Dyer) HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! I have been listening to this album for over a month and just can’t get it out of my head. Walker has produced a beautiful and mature work that that touches something essential in the nature of being human. This music is largely religious in nature, an expression of the Baha’i faith with about half the song lyrics coming from scripture and other Baha’i writings. Musically, Walker starts from a folk/rock base in songs like “Hidden Word #44” with its simple arrangement and heartfelt vocal and takes it all the way to his upbeat Stax/Otis Redding groove-inspired “In the Willow,” where he contemplates life were he a tree (and it sounds like an ok existence!). Walker takes his basic guitar-song structures and adds enough diversity in percussion, mood and some downright tasty lead guitar to keep the album varied and interesting through its journey. His singing throughout is soulful, in the very broadest sense of that word.

Recent Review. (Author: JG). INDEPENDENT & INGENIOUS! Fantastic songs with a powerful and much-needed positive message. I am always in awe of truly independent musicians, and I give full props to this artist (who apparently did all of the arranging, recording, performing and production himself) for his hard work in producing a wonderful work of art.

Beautiful! Wonderful recording, singing, playing. I like the accompaniment timbre. More. I like the surprise chord change and chorus at "seat of God". Well done. I look forward to hearing more of your work. Best regards, jim
