Been listening to "Dreaming" over and over again...just can't get it out of my head. Love to see a Shapeshifter remix of that track for the new year...and maybe even a full length version of "Tamborines" also! That track is fantastic but it's frustratingly short, haha!
Hope all is well!

Just bought your cd and was quite willing to part with 30 odd bucks just for 'Peace' alone.
Another fantastic effort.
So many great tracks- I echo iput's (below) comment.
You do make beautiful music.
Keep up the great work Bro !

Devin, 'In A Quiet Storm' has left me just about speechless. I've never heard such a lush, wonderful, life-affirming album as this is...both superlative and sublime, it's beyond everything else you've ever done - and that's saying a lot. Simply amazing.
