Ottmar Liebert & Luna Negra - Opium

"Opium is a varied collection of songs from German guitarist Ottmar Liebert in a double CD package. The album, nominated for a Grammy in 1997 for Best New Age Recording, features two ambitiously different sets of songs. Disc 1 is called "Wide-Eyed", and disc 2 is called "Dreaming", which essentially describes the tone and pace of each CD. "Wide-Eyed" features more of the nuevo flamenco sound Liebert popularized on earlier CDs, while "Dreaming" is more experimental and ethereal, where the Luna Negra group members delve into new sonic landscapes." - guitar9.com
