5.0 out of 5 stars This is a must buy, 29 Jan 2000
I listened first to White Pages as I heard a snippet of it on BBC Radio 3 while driving to work. I liked the style, harmonic changes and economic use of motifs and decided to hunt a Torke CD. I bought Overnight Mail, but I find myself listening more to Telephone Book as it is a more interesting work and seems better compositionally than the other works on the album which seem more borrowed, more eclectic. This review might be rather naive but I think Torke has a great talent and as soon as he rids himself of this 'minimalist influence' (which after all is old hat as it been round for more than a quarter of century) he could be a major influence in the 21st Century in devising a new tonality which would give a kickstart in musical composition which has seem to gone into the wilderness and help give Mankind a successor to the 1 or 2 great composersofthe 20th Century ie.(Stravinsky/Shostakovich).

5.0 out of 5 stars michael torke supreme antidote to a mixed up world, 16 Jan 2007
By Nima "Nima" (near newton abbot, devon United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
In my book Michael Torke is the best in Contemporary music. I listen for hours and never feel bored. I am not a musician but I know whats good-his work in my opinion is much more than that. My especial favourite is colour music. I strongly recommend anyone to sit and listen
