1	Thanksgiving: A Windham Hill Collection (1998) more music like this by Various Artists A Thanksgiving recording? That's what the folks at Windham Hill have proposed. Whether or not the theme truly makes sense is quickly made irrelevant by the beautiful performances. Of particular note is the stunning performance of "We Gather Together" by Paul McCandless, Philip Aaberg, and Michael Manring. The entire set is a consistently beautiful ... see all copies from $9.52! new only from $13.53!
2	Canyon Trilogy, Vol. 5 (1989) more music like this by R. Carlos Nakai Canyon Trilogy represents a return to the simplicity of Carlos Nakai's earlier albums such as Changes and Journeys.

19 view cover	Metamora (1985) more music like this by Metamora It is unfortunate that the stylistic label "new age" is applied so liberally to any style of music that does not have a rock backbeat.
