Artie Traum made a new age album with this collection of acoustic guitar-led instrumentals. The musical styles varied from the folk-pop leadoff track, "She's Riding Again," which sounded like a lost
James Taylor song minus the vocals, to "Quiet Volcano," which boasted a light, melodic jazz-fusion sound, and "Light Across the Harbor," which had the evocative feel of much acoustic new age music.
Traum usually used four or five backup musicians, but his guitar playing, frequently featuring the fingerpicking of nylon strings, was the gentle leading sound. ~ William Ruhlmann
