WINDOWS OF TIME

WoT

"I just received Mike Mullins' new CD "Windows of Time." It is a fabulous convocation of local genius which reaches a critical artistic mass and explodes into the hearts and souls of its listeners.This is Old Magic and powerful, with incredible musicians like Joe Craven, Phil Salazar, David West, Tom Lee, Penny Nichols, Tim Mullins, Gabe Witcher, Tom Corbett, and more. I'm not an endorser of products, but I believe the arts support us and we should return the favor. I sent a paypal payment to Mike and had a signed CD the next day... For my musician friends (especially the pickers) WOW. For my poet friends, every song is an act of unmitigated love. For my writer friends, here is inspiration. For the painters, a glimpse of what you're trying to say. For the actors, what you need inside is here. For the singers, you will think, "At Last." Get this for your soul, and for those who need a lifting of the spirit. Wow, maybe I am and endorser of products after all. My strongest recommendation."
