It's not up to that standard, but so far, so good. The violin really cuts through the mix. I'm about half way through and I can't wait to get alone with it and turn up the volume. |

I just ordered two Shaun Guerin solo discs. RIP I think the vocal tracks for K2 were the last recordings he did before he died. |

Well I managed to listen to the whole thing .It is very good ...very polished...although I found it all a bit 'samey' .Could have done with more variety in keyboard sounds perhaps?
