    Nura's music is a real treat! I was amazed at the versatility and range within the compositions, the musicians and Nura's vocals. It's like getting a whole bunch of cd's all in one. I highly recommend this music to everyone.

    Being a musician myself, I was blown away with the percussion by Luis Conte and the drumming of Randy Cooke on this album. Stuart Steinhart tops off the rythme section with really creative and amazing bass playing as well. Nura's vocals taught me just how awesome the voice can be. This is a musicians delight!!!
