I don't like the font you used (but that's personal I think), but I like the landscape and the light.

There's some compression artifacts around the letters. Nice shot, good composition, could easily be an album cover.

too commercial

DPofL was started by Yanni when he felt his solo work wasn't soulful enough. He hoped that by teaming with Michael Bolton and Kenny G he would find the deep meaning he sought. This power trio achieved its greatest depth on their second album, "the soul's journey." A concept album, it followed the soul of a dung beetle through fifty-seven reincarnations until finally it ended up as David Crosby where it achieved Nirvana at the business end of a Joni-Mitchell-shaped bong. This co-opting of 60s hippieness finally gave Yanni the serenity he needed to accept his profound superficiality, at which point he dissolved into a giant smile.

i like the image and the title and the name of the band but this would be much more effective without the man in the image - or with the whole band or with the man and his musical instrument.

This is a beautiful photo. I sort of wish the man wasn't in there to spoil it, but definately one of my favourites..
