After the Rain by Michael Jones.......2007-03-08

This CD is a delight to listen to. Over the years I have passed this title onto many, many people and they have ALL really liked it. I provided the cover photography for this CD so I'm a little biased on that account! But it really is a great album.

a lovely pece of piano music, I wanted some sounds of the sea.......2007-01-26

The music is lovely, if you like piano music as a relaxer. I much prefer album of soothing sea gull sounds, and the waves crashing in and going out.

excellent new age music.......2007-01-12

The work is sensuous, mystical and brilliant in it's instrumentation and melodic development. Relaxing, inspiring and peaceful throughout, the piece manages to convey the majesty of nature and the infinite beauty of possibility. The cd is an excellent companion for a road trip through mountains and any scenic drive.

Wow....just...........wow..........2006-05-02

What can I say that hasn't already been said by others before me?
After the Rain is quite possibly THE finest piano album of the modern era. The person before me who mentioned the quiet after the rainstorm - that's it, right there. Early some Sunday morning, just after sunrise, right before the world around you starts coming back to life, go sit out on the porch or balcony or patio, load this album into your iPod, slip on your headphones, lean back and prop up your feet. Close your eyes and sip your morning coffee and listen to Michael Jones' After the Rain, and be taken away to someplace magical. Imagine yourself in the forest pictured on the cover, listening to birds chirping, the wind in the trees....
Michael Jones has created magic with this album. The piano is powerful, moving, but not intrusive or overpowering. The flute and cello simply blend in perfectly with the piano without getting lost themselves, making for a beautiful piece. Listen to the album in its entirety - best in one sitting. Take time out of the day and just savor this recording - its THAT good.

After the Rain.......2005-01-27

You know that first spring rain, after winter's gone, and the sky just opens? Everything's verdant and beautiful in the soft morning light, and then the rain comes, gently pelting the earth to ready it for spring. And then, right after the rain stops, there's this silence, like nothing else you ever here. I call it, quite simply, the silence after the rainstorm. But it's more than that--there's an unexplainable spirit there.

`After the Rain' catches that spirit and holds it. Simply by pushing the play button, you are transported to a beautiful place-the silence right after that first spring rain, which is really a beautiful thing, especially after the winter's been. I love the winter, the kaamos, the moonshine, the light the snow gives off, but let me say it's a bit of a relief to see the spring come again.

What beautiful piano music this is. It just gets into your heart and stays. The individual notes, like raindrops, blend together to become a bit of a rainstorm that just captures your soul.
