Be warned -- this is an album that will grow on you very quickly.

Full Descriptionsamplers. It's easy to spot some of the artificial elements, but many more of them have been blurred into the total sound, making it impossible to separate live players from the computer-driven tracks -- excellent work indeed (Cook also produced and engineered the tracks, which makes the result all the more impressive).

Intent listening to this album is a very rewarding experience indeed.ASIN: B000005P49VSKU: GGV.B000005P49.LNCondition: Like NewAuthor/Artist:Cook, JesseBinding: Audio CD
