Heavenly Musical Masterpiece

Being in an audio-related business, I am exposed to many quality musical performances. Sometimes audiophiles travel hundreds of miles, just to hear their favorite recordings on my personal reference systems. They always arrive with what they consider to be the most delectable CD's or vinyl, both musically and sonically, to share. That being said, when IN TIMES LIKE THESE arrived several days ago, I was not quite prepared for the experience. Every aspect of all the factors involved in this masterpiece, are of the highest imaginable order. A sort of convergence occurred, that is all but impossible. It would be unjust to attempt to highlight anything in particular. It's beyond consideration! I've never thought this before, but I do believe that a Higher Order played their part in making this performance possible. If I were relegated to only owning one album, this would be it. Thank you Arlo, for making it all possible. March 8, 2008

new arrangements for old friends

In Times Like These

Following an Arlo Guthrie Concert at the Warner Theatre in Connecticut where Arlo mentioned that he has been performing with symphony orchestras, I was holiday shopping for my husband. We have been fans since Arlo was almost as young as our sons. This album was different from all others we have collected. The arrangements add a new dimension to already wonderful songs. It's a fabulous album! December 23, 2007

Lovely Music from Arlo

Arlo is an old friend I am never tired of hearing from, whether it is new songs or old standards! The symphony back-up makes this a mellow cd wonderful for introspective times, as well as singing along. November 21, 2007

Freewill Pedistrian

I never would have believed it if I hadn't heard it. Guthrie and the UK Orchestra are the perfect blend of oil and water. October 29, 2007
