notes
Symptoms: tense and irritable. Diagnosis: too much stress. Treatment: listen to "An Open Mind" once daily.
Meet Sergeant Louis Lamp. Fit and proud soldier in the US Army and an extraordinary musician and composer, who has just released his first album, An Open Mind. Soothing and uplifting at the same time, An Open Mind is a auditory sensory pleasure any time of day, any occasion.
An Open Mind is destined to be an epic recording in the new age genre, possibly even being the album that redefines the genre for coming generations.
Possessing both the soul of the warrior and the soul of the musician, Louis Lamp has breathed a fiery calm into these songs, almost in spite of himself.
Anything but restrained, there is still an obvious cadence to the melodies that can be felt as well as heard, leaving the listener wanting more but not sure they could handle even a note beyond what they've already heard. This
album both soothes and energizes the listener with a passion that has seldom been heard in any genre, let alone new age.
It's in your hands now and now it's your turn to play a part in musical history by giving this album the attention it deserves, encouraging Louis Lamp to give more of his talent to the world in the form of more music, more
albums. Written by Jef Peace, of PeaceWork Music Net
-Note- Louis Lamp is now also a member of the Elite Veterans of Rock (www.evor.com) and is also featured on their fourth compilation disk, Tracks Across Time, with the song by Jimmy Caterine, Michael Jordet and himself, known as "Respite Under the Sun".

Refreshing and Exciting CD
A couple of weeks ago, if anyone had told me that I'd be enjoying yet another "Ambient" music CD, I would probably not have believed them. Well, here I am not only enjoying but raving about a new CD called "An Open Mind" from a new artist named Louis Lamp. Let me tell you, this is not "yet another" CD. Louis has composed, arranged and performed an album of material that is ambient overall but contains a range of moods and emotions. My favorites tracks are Emotional Collage which is dark, mysterious and joyful all at once; Reverie II which has almost a 70s funk feel to it and; Time Away (from Vibes) which brings to mind the keyboard work of Rick Wakemen. The sounds on this CD do not drone on and on in endless loops as do some other CDs in this genre. In fact, this is a CD of music. One could go as far as applying that old Romantic Era phrase "Song Without Words" to many of these compositions. Louis has created a CD that is refreshing and exciting. Put this CD in your player and enjoy an opening of your mind.
More about An Open Mind
author: Jef PeaceJust wanted to add that this CD has opened my mind regarding new age/ambient. Absolutely amazing composition and the musicianship is impeccable. I've been listening to the ENTIRE cd at least once a day for two weeks. A definitive album of the genre, possibly destined to be one of the greatest ever.
