Back in the 90’s, New Age Music was doing very well due, for the most part, by the artists on the Windham Hill Records label. During that period, I interviewed and reviewed quite a lot of folks and their albums of primarily instrumental music. Recently, I received notification of an album called “The Trouble With Wilderness” by pianist/composer Ben Cosgrove and when I listened to the link I was sent, I was immediately transported back 30 years ago to that simpler time and I requested an interview with this talented young man. I called the number supplied by his publicist at the allotted time and caught him in his car pulled over on the side of the road in, of all places, Southern Maine.
