Beautiful debut on acoustic guitar
author: The Sub-Etha Mariner
In this debut album Dustin Jones skillfully demonstrates the range and versatility of the solo acoustic guitar with a selection of instrumental pieces that are meditative, meticulous, and soulful. Songs like "At the End of the Earth" weave a spell, like a flickering fire, that draws the listener into a reverie; others, like "One Fine Thursday" or "Elation", are quicker-moving, bright melodies.
With the exception of "Tico Tico" and "Adelita", all tracks are original compositions, beautiful ambient music that is a mix of New Age and classical, with memorable melodies. Jones' study of the classical form, and its influence, is evident in "Starseed" and "Where's the Dream Go When It's Over".
Production values are excellent. The guitar is full, mellow, and round, and the accompaniment present on a few tracks (such as "The Timeless Sea") is supportive and doesn't overwhelm the guitar.
I quite enjoyed this initial effort and am looking forward to Jones' next album. It would be interesting to hear his classical performances along with some new compositions.

Great first effort from Dustin.

A nice mix of styles which showcases Dustins abilities. In today's solo guitar market it's hard to make it specializing in only one style. I'm looking forward to hearing his next album.
