I went through the album as soon as i had bought it, i love his progression between genres, and i have really grown accustomed to all his styles. Light and shade is a great peice of work, and i enjoyed every minute of it. so i recognise bits and pieces from Fruity loops and even the intro to "Tears of an angel" i can tell has a bit of sampling from Garageband on apple macs, so what? it sounds good, who is anyone to say that it is crap if they  cant ever come close to producing music more hertfelt and spritual that any of mikes music. Am I the only one to really enjoy light and shade?     -And dont anyone say its because im young, my favourite album is ommadawn, and i believe ive got an acquired taste in music, but even light and shade has Mike's touches which i can hear, and i wonder after reading this thread on light and shade if anyone else does. -------------- Grand piano. Reed and pipe organ. Glockenspeil. Bass guitar. Vocal chords. Two slightly sampled electric guitars. The venitian effect. Digital sound processor. And Tubular bells.

Just some people that can't or won't move 0n things need to develope otherwise they just wither and die. unless mike finds new streams we shall die of thirst in what today is a musical desert of boy and girl bands  or even worse crazy frogs how can such tat remain and continue to sell in this day and age. do people just want mike to go and play concerts doing all his old music or do they want to see his continued and strong growth ? and as he grows so does or musical taste and understandin ( well some of us,others shall remain in the past holding onto some silly ideal of what music mike should be producing) we devour the art which mike lovingly and graciously produces for that Mike i am truly greatful.

Im glad im not alone, mike has made this piece of art and released it to the world to form their opinion, and i believe that he has poured his emotion into it, we should only respect that. he has progressed and it has taught me a valuable lesson to do so in my music. Maybe we should all learn from it. -------------- Grand piano. Reed and pipe organ. Glockenspeil. Bass guitar. Vocal chords. Two slightly sampled electric guitars. The venitian effect.
