Lovely. Absolutely lovely...Ned Selfe's new CD (his second) is one of the nicest steel guitar recordings of the year...It is not a traditional steel guitar album designed to impress other steel guitarists. It is rather a collection of works by a gifted musician and composer whose instrument is the pedal steel guitar...Thumbs up as high as I can stretch them.
Mike Perlowin, Steel Guitar World Magazine
An outrageously talented pedal steel guitar player, Selfe also has quite an ear for fresh, original compositions that have me coming back for more...Selfe weaves elements of jazz, pop, and rock through blues, world, ambient and Hawaiian into tapestries of totally fresh sonic pleasure...'Errands in Paradise' is a great album for fans of fresh contemporary music, and is one of my favorite albums...
Steve Ryals, New Age Retailer
Following up his acclaimed '95 album 'Glaciers Come, Glaciers Go'..., Ned Selfe now emerges with a near consummate album of contemporary guitar based jazz/pop instrumentals... Reflecting Selfe's mastery of a wide variety of...genres, including Hawaiian slack key and techno-ambient jazz, 'Errands in Paradise' is clearly one of the finest instrumental guitar albums of the '90s.
Robert Silverstein, 20th Century Guitar
