SO BEAUTIFUL AND PERFECT MELODY!!

[@juanjosemora6534]

I grew up listening to this song on the smooth jazz radio station here in Costa Rica. Before I knew the name of the song I always associated this with artistic illustrations of the sky (blue background with yellow stars ). Thank you for the wonderful music.

Un rayo del cielo tocado por esta melodía ,les agradezco por tan preciosa melodía ❤❤💖❤

Muchas gracias! 🎸🎹😍

So glad you're putting these online. When I was 6 I used to get up and record episodes of the Art of Landscape to VCR and it was my first exposure to electronic music, along with Tangerine Dreams' tracks. And it's what I do now, so I owe you guys a big thanks!

[@PaulSpeerMusic]

You're welcome. I am moved by the incredible response we are receiving by uploading videos from the archives. I will eventually upload all the videos from Natural States and Desert Vision.

[@georgeochoa3089]

This is a great song they used to play on the Wave 94.7 in the late 80s…

[@JYelton]

Nostalgic trip back to some of the most loved music of my life. I remember going to many David Lanz concerts in Salt Lake City (solo piano). Would have equally loved an ensemble including Paul Speer!

[@PaulSpeerMusic]

Our touring group played a sold out show at Abravanel Hall as a stop on the Bridge of Dreams tour in 1993. Sorry you missed it. We still have many fans in Utah.

[@aggomez594]

The rain forests are really wonderful places. Each year, on summer vacations, I visit one of them and always it's a great adventure

[@axeltidoz]

Thank you so much for this song David and Paul because when I heard it I remember great memories of my childhood..!

[@AL83RTO1]

I remember listening to this track when a was younger, that's when I understood the meaning of meditation, back them I did it with out the knowledge of it.

My pleasure, Monica. Thanks for your long time support of our work.

Thank you so much for uploading these. I literally wore out the vhs tapes of these and am so glad I can see and listen to them again.

[@PaulSpeerMusic]

You're welcome, Bruce. I realized I had only uploaded a few of the nature videos so I am digging in the archives to get all of them here on youtube. FYI, you can find DVDs on places like Amazon, ebay, etc.

[@CarlosCruz-gu3nc]

Thank you

[@Kastriona]

Thank you! These videos were my childhood background and the areas you chose are still spellbinding and wondrous!

[@swazifiction]

Paul, just to say that I love your work with David. I bought this album in Tower Records in London when it first came out. I’m a Londoner, guitarist, novelist and songwriter and I know these albums are special. Be blessed. Thank you.

[@PaulSpeerMusic]

Thanks for your kind words, Swazifiction. I miss Tower Records.

Gorgeous song, is this a Yamaha DX7?

Thanks. Yes, a DX7 using the Celtic Harp patch.

I bought a sealed copy of Natural States cd wanting to give all the tracks a listen. The video and the song go extremely well together. I wish a high qaulity version of the album cover exists online. Also would you be able to share the raw file of this recording?

[@PaulSpeerMusic]

Using new technology, a friend was able to create higher quality versions of Natural States and Desert Vision video albums. I'll be uploading those to my channel soon.

Is there an HD version of this particular video in circulation?

As far as I know, there isn't. This was transferred from the laserdisc and the best quality I could work with.
