Review:

THE SPIRITUAL SIGNIFICANCE OF MUSIC is the kind of book that's good for everyone. Whether your relationship with music is as a music maker or an avid listener, open to any page and there's something that will inspire you. The words are grounding and stabilizing, uplifting and enlightening, and carry a message that can be applied to anything in life, not just music. It's a great pleasure to be part of this book, and I thank Justin St. Vincent for inviting me to join this diverse and talented group of contributors all sharing their stories, points of view, and a piece of themselves. --- Ron 'Bumblefoot' Thal, guitarist in Guns N' Roses

I love THE SPIRITUAL SIGNIFICANCE OF MUSIC because it shows what professional musicians and songwriters thought about music and spirituality. Spirituality is the only truly important thing in life and music is a powerful doorway into the mysterious and holy things of our universe. Everyone who considers themselves a musician will enjoy this book, regardless of their spiritual stance. --- Seth Hecox, guitarist and keyboards in Becoming The Archetype

THE SPIRITUAL SIGNIFICANCE OF MUSIC is one of the most exciting concepts put together. It fusions the different ideas from all walks of people engulfed in the same purpose, feeling their soul through music. It's amazing to read so many opinions from musicians and producers with such varied styles of music being connected in the same thoughts. Justin St. Vincent's hard work has given us a chance of studying a concept in our modern world which has been with us since ancient times, THE SPIRITUAL SIGNIFICANCE OF MUSIC. --- Danny Felice, guitarist, mandolin player, and vocalist in Breed 77
