Since September 2010, this blog has recorded the journey of this music junkie as I attempt to listen to all the music in my CD collection. CDs revisited in their entirety from start to finish - no skipping tracks, no shuffle. Compact Discs only - no vinyl, no tapes, no files.

Liz Story - Escape of the Circus Ponies (1990)

<

Perfect melancholy, relaxing music for a cool, rainy day (even though it's sunny, dry, and 90° as I listen and write this). I've enjoyed the New Age piano improvisational noodlings on Story's 1988 album Speechless for almost 25 years, so whenever I see a Story CD from around that time in the used CD bin, I'll pick it up. This is every bit as good as Speechless, but I guess that earlier album was just the right music at the right time because I continue to prefer it to Story's other work. That's how it goes sometimes.

Peak on the US Billboard Top 200 chart:  Did not chart

Tracks:   9 tracks, 50 minutes.  My picks here are Broken Arrow Drive and Church Of Trees. Skip the title cut and Another Shore.

Personal Memory Associated with this CD: None

Previously revisited for the blog:
The Gift (1994)
Speechless (1988)
Part Of Fortune (1986)
