Reviews:
San Luis Obispo New Times - "Fans of acoustic guitar music will want to pick up a copy of Dorian Michael's 'The Way We Dance,' a collection of a dozen original compositions. Featuring mostly blues and folk, 'The Way We Dance' is a clear demonstration of Michael's fingerstyle guitar skills. The instrumental tunes are richly arranged, and like many great solo guitarists, Michael makes it sound like there's more than one guitar at work. My favorite track, 'Cardinal Rule,' is a slide guitar number that's simply transporting. This is a must-have for acoustic music fans."
Dirty Linen - "This is an impressive collection of 12 solo guitar pieces composed and nimbly performed by guitarist Dorian Michael, whose writing and playing has obviously been influenced by guitarists like Leo Kottke and John Fahey. His fingerpicking style sharply defines the tunes, and his melodies show a wide range of influences. An engaging and entertaining recording."
