Free Music Notes for Until We Felt Red
Free Music Review: One in a million
Hit: 5 Stars
Actually, I'm fairly certain there are other great guitar players out there; they just don't have record deals yet. With that said, Kaki is making the music I've waited a long time to hear. Will Ackerman was my first exposure to instrumental guitar. Then Hedges, who was amazing. But Kaki is special, in my opinion. With diversity and maturity in her songwriting, Kaki is easily making the music I've waited so long to hear. I can't play it, but I knew it was out there... somewhere.Free Music Review: Changes--Ambient Soundscape that King's Long-term Fans May or May Not Enjoy
Hit: 3 Stars
Kaki King's 3rd album, Until We Felt Red, shows a substantial change from her previous works--instead of playing guitar with extraordinary technique, King has created an ambient soundscape album with the 80s-ish New Wave Rock taste. Featuring her own ennui voice, this self-indulging piece might have expanded King's fan base; meanwhile, her long-term fans may or may not enjoy it. Like any other artists, King needs changes. Possible next may be infusion of King's guitar virtuoso into what she sincerely loves.Free Music Review: I think I prefer her guitar centric music
Hit: 3 Stars
Picked this CD up on a sale and I can't say I regret it, but I am not as pleased with this as I am Ms. King's earlier more guitar-based work. This CD has a strong New Age jazz feel, which will appeal to some people, but was not what I was looking for. Ms. King has an interesting breathy ethereal sounding voice which is pleasant and a nice break.
My suggestion is to listen to the selections offered on this CD closely to see if they're what you're interested in. If you want a New Age-eclectic feel, then you will stand a good chance of liking this CD. If you are interested in more instrumental guitar, pick up one of Ms. King's previous CDs.

Free Music Review: Not sure if you'll feel red, but chances are you'll like the music
Hit: 4 Stars
I was listening to a 'new age' internet radio station about a month or so ago, and it had this song called 'Right After Sidewalk' playing. While it didn't exactly sound like new-age, I was extremely pleased with the music. It was an instrumental with guitar. That's when I discovered Kaki King. This album doesn't feature the song I mentioned earlier (that was part of her first album titled 'Everybody Loves You'), but it's still mostly guitar solos with Kaki using her voice in some of the songs. The songs are very relaxing and soothing, and Kaki's voice adds an ethereal feeling to the songs. She is an extremely talented guitarist and quite a good vocalist too. I'm sure she is destined for even bigger successes. Oh, and did I say that the cover art is brilliant?Free Music Review: Wonderful alternative acoustic guitar sound...

The woman behind the guitar sound from the movie, August Rush, Kaki King is gifted and terrifically entertaining. Makes this keyboardist want to learn to play guitar...
