The elements that made Spencer's previous release Silence Between the Words so compelling are captured in full glory on his latest CD In the Light of Autumn. The intuitive and powerful piano playing of Chas Eller is seamlessly entwined with Spencer's inimitable crossflatpicking guitar style. Eller's other keyboard contributions include the Hammond B3 organ with its rich and distinctive sound along with a lush palette of synthesizer passages. There are eight songs in all some on the long side; Stem Turn in Wilderness is almost eight minutes while Honoring Soft Maple is over nine. Like any other Spencer Lewis CD it will be easy to get lost; in peaceful thoughts or in the passion of the music. For one only needs to be lost... just enough... to be found.
