Don't get me wrong, I like the music, it just a thin sounding album to my ears. It doesn't make me dislike the music, just that while listening to it I always feel it could have sounded better. I've strained my ears on even worse recordings on YouTube. So its not disliking lo-fi recordings, probably I am more to accustomed to studio record guitar albums, and secretly wish that Bay of Kings was one of them. I've heard Julian Bream and Christopher Parkening record in a church with a high vault ceiling or large room for the effect of reverberation that a spacious room provides and the quality of the recording still comes out sounding a little bit fuller.

Picture sitting on the top deck of a house boat in the very front with your legs dangling where all you can see is water while moving slowly through a morning fog about 50 feet off the coast of a lake as Bay Of Kings plays gently in your ears through your headphones. That was quite a moment, and my first experience with that album.

That was quite a moment, and my hundredth experience with that album, 6- and 12- String.
