Reviews

"This very fine early career compilation skims the cream from instrumentalist Carl Weingarten's first seven albums (one unreleased track, the moody, spacious "Holographic Blues," is also included). Weingarten is an appealing, accessible experimentalist, and a guitarist of considerable skill (his fortes include the slide guitar, the Dobro, and the use of effects). His music is rooted in folk and country, but is not bound be these categories; as it draws on jazz, psychedelia, world music, and ambient conceptions as well. HAND IN THE SAND covers a twelve-year span--1990-2004--yet remains remarkably cohesive in its vision. . . " --MUZE.com

"I can't say enough about this album. It does more than confirm Weingarten's reputation as a terrific slide player. It showcases some of his best compositions from the past 15 years; many are absolutely stunning. By placing them in a new context, it emphasizes how much each has to say . . . I keep playing this album. Everyone who I play it for likes it." --Richard D. Price
