content: Very joyful, inspiring music. Jim Salestrom`s elegant, heartfelt lyrics and beautiful music would cheer up even a Grinch. The Messenger is some of Jim`s best material, and it is wonderful to see it being sold on Amazon.com. Mr. Salestrom is in love with kid and nature (especially the Rocky Mountains of Colorado), and this love really comes through in this recording. Highly recommended for kids of all ages. Warning: cynics will not like this CD!
