5 out of 5 stars This is a Must Have.......2005-08-04

About 20 years ago, I saw the VHS version of Natural States playing on TV's in a local Radio Shack. They used it for TV sales, but they did not sale the tape. They only had one copy, and I had no idea where to buy a copy at the time - it was not available in the local music stores, no one had Internet back then. I really liked the scenes and the music, and just had to have a copy. I knew the manager of the store quite well, since I went in there rather often (I was an electronics buff and majoring in electrical engineering). Least I say more.

Anyhow, since then, I have bought the Natural States CD and the Natural States DVD, and a couple other CD's by Lanz and/or Speer. The Natural States music is as good today as it was twenty years ago. It never ages. Get this CD or DVD (if you want the scenery), sit back, relax, and enjoy all the music. You won't regret it. A beautiful piece of work. I'm not into most easy listening, instrumental music like you hear on NPB radio stations. Lanz's music is a step above that.

4 out of 5 stars Early progressive sound.......2005-06-25

This release has been out for 20 years now, and many of the tracks sound dated. However, Paul Speer's two tracks (Allegro/984 and Lento/985) are a great example of early progressive electronic music and sound just as great today as they did in '85. Worth buying just for those two tracks.

5 out of 5 stars Relaxing, soothing, and beautiful!.......2003-04-21

I couldnt believe how relaxing the music made me feel. The instrumental music is very well played and at the same time, it makes me relax quickly. This is real music for the soul. When I read the title of the track, "Behind the Waterfall", I thought it may have real sounds of the waterfall but it didnt. Still even without the sounds of water, the music smoothens everything out.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent music!.......2002-09-23

When I was a kid going to EPCOT Center at Walt Disney World, I remember hearing "Behind the Waterfall" in Future World in the background. It is amazing how sometimes you hear something years ago and then you hear again for the first time. I heard it for the first time 5 years ago and it is still something I will never forget. "Behind the Waterfall" is a piece that will always be part of my childhood. Definitely worth picking up.

5 out of 5 stars Best cassete I have........2002-08-17

I also had this on a cassette which was played so much it wore out! Now that I have a CD player I had to get Natural States on CD.
