Get it if you can... January 17, 2008
The music is good and the lyrics are meaningful...
The Pagan song 'Burning Times' is beautifully done. There are also songs that address a variety of 'current issues' and can be enjoyed by people of any faith.
intensely erotic synergism December 2, 2006

The synergistic energy in the combined musical talents of these members of this project are hard to surpass, by even the magic in lifelong band members who've played for decades. The messages of the songs, some as harsh as reality, carried on the wings of a dream... like the yin & yang of reality we face, , or rather, choose to face, & our escape into dreams...
It's a dichotomy, you love it or hate it, or intermittenlty love & then hate it (as you are drawn into it so deply you may temporarily wear it out - but rest assurred you always return!) Some have managed to love yet hate it simultaneously, but I've not been so vexed.
The title track is a lesson & would be a classic in pagan sages. YOu should listen to this, & then you should BE DANCING, in the OLNY GREEN WORLD, that's turning...around the sun...
There's fun to be shared here, and to make some aware nearly something for everyone with an open mind...
The only real disappointment, is that Charlie has disappearred, but I guess he's doing his own thing. I guess some magical moments just can't be repeated. So grateful for this blessing, but ...of course I wish there were more...
SO GLAD it has been re-released! October 15, 2006

This collection of songs (one of two Charlie Murphy cassettes I had in the early 80's) is top notch. Original songwriting. Political message of hope and dedication despite the devastating condition of our world. Excellent musicianship. Jamie Seiber is a world class cellist. Charlie Murphy's vocals are pleasant, in key, and energetic. There is a full band backing them and the excellent production quality shows. (Produced by a drummer from Santana).
This is a "Must Have" album for any Pagan, any Activist, anyone who has been touched by loss (I choose life is in response to the devastation of AIDS). See also "Canticles of Light" for songs and chants that are useful in protest or ritual settings.
What are you waiting for? Buy this CD!

 Pop/Jazz sound with Environmental Message September 22, 2003
13 out of 14 found this review helpful
This is an unusual CD but I really like it. The majority of the album conveys an environmental or clean living message with original songwriting and good music - kind of a mixture of pop/jazz. "Green World" is especially good - " We may be dancing on the only green world". It would be a five star album but there are two songs that keep me from putting the CD into a constant rotation. I heard "Burning Times" on Public Radio and the song was so unique I had to order the CD because I figured it would be a very long time before I ever heard it again. "Burning Times" is written from the point of view of the Wiccans and is a rather melodramatic piece about the persecution of the 'witches' in Europe. It is very unique and the musical arrangement is very good but it is a little over the top to hear over and over again after the initial novelty wears off. The only real strike against it is that in "Nightmare", the song starts off with the sound of a civil defense siren. Good effect for the message of the song but annoying if you like to leave a CD in a constant rotation. Still, high points (four stars) for good originality and overall sound.
