Leslee Griffith

Leslee Griffith Wow Will, you popped into my head this morning. Back in the late '70s or so I worked at a little market in Sausalito. You were an occasional customer, found your music and fell in love with it, went to many of your concerts and still have your music. Thank you for genius and generousity.

Ralph Buttler Thank you ...

Robert McClure

Robert McClure You have been my inspiration for your style of playing as well. I believe my first song I heard from you was "Visiting" from you "Past Light" CD and been a fan ever since. Thank you for your many contributions you have made as well as all of the Windham Hill Artists

Cynthia Crossley

Really love this gentle song... reminds me of my old childhood home in Mendocino, listening to the Pacific waves rolling against the headlands below our house. I've transcribed "The Impending Death.." and a few others, and learned "Visiting" from your transcription, but this is one I've always wanted and just never found the time to do. I wonder if anyone has transcribed it?

I love this piece too. Actually just posted it on my wall so many, many more people can hear your work. Hawks Circle with Michael Hedges is soooo amazing. I'm sure you miss your friend... Thanks for what you do. Cynthia

This is good....and bad. Good because it is evocative and beautiful. Bad because I don't have it. Why don't I have it? Damn, there goes my OCD......
