Solid Soliloquy
author: Mike Sassin
Right from the start, Michaels Soliloquy grabs your attention. Helios, the first melody makes you pay attention and you can feel the direction his monologue is taking you. It's an album of compositions that takes you from dawn, through the day and on to dusk; if that makes sense to anyone. Not that it needs to grow on you, but it's definitely written with certain moods prevalent. While 'Greetings Earthlings' has an industrious flavor and 'A Morning Star' will go good with a cup of coffee, 'Selene' will put you in a contemplative frame of mind and 'Insomnia Lessons' is like a look into the mind of the author.
I can almost envision an accompaniment from Steve Morse, which would only serve to enhance the distinct melodies Michael has developed and perfected. The album 'Thonk' he did with Steve Morse, is on my short list of all time favorites and purchased with no knowledge of Michael Manring at the time. That quickly changed!
'Come With Me My Love' brought this album to a perfect close. Absolutely Brilliant Michael!
To shorten my rambling sentiment for Michaels music, I like this album very much.
