Celtic Journey to The Path by Jim Goodin

" - Woody Mann, guitarist

"His original compositions subtly recall influences such as Will Ackerman and Ralph Towner, but Goodin is no copycat, finding his own personal harmonic 'space' in the context of a solo guitar recording." - Guitar9 Records

"That song 'For Michael' that you wrote for Michael Hedges is especially beautiful." - Joyce Oliveira, fan

"Goodin succeeds with a bold endeavor to compose & title an aural eulogy to artist Michael Hedges, who many progressive acoustic guitarists' worship. At the same time he has drawn a line on the fretboard for others to cross with his stunning Celtic/New Age creations." - MP3.com station, Artguitect

"Thank you for your desert tunes, the evocation of Geoergia O'Keeffee, the frenetic color, your dancing hands and the bouncing string ends. The pieces you played were soulful and beautiful." - Erik Schurink, house concert host, NY.
