Anders Roland, a member of the country rock band Hvalsøspillemændene, and Finn Olafsson, a Danish guitarist who was a central figure in the progressive rock band Ache since the early 1970s, collaborated on this duo album released in 1984 on Olafsson's independent label. Showcasing a gentle and pastoral atmosphere, the album elevates country/folk music with acoustic guitars as the main instrument, accompanied by violin, bouzouki, keyboards, percussion, and a hint of ethnic sentiment. True to its title, the album exudes a pleasant sensation akin to touring various landscapes. It resonates with works by Michael Hedges from Windham Hill and Wolfgang Barthel, a German minor guitarist unearthed by Growing Bin Records' Basso. The sleeve bears the signatures of both artists.
