Allmusic awarded the album 3½ stars stating "An underappreciated and unassuming album, Desert Winds has plenty of easy charm, and while there are no barn-burning solos here, there are plenty of moments of quiet and lyrical joy".[2]

Personnel
gollark: Unsupported hardware.
gollark: If you just blindly copy-paste stuff into the terminal to do things, you will have Problems™.
gollark: I mean, stuff like "an actually good terminal which you use for many operations" is new to many users.
gollark: To actually use it you do need to know more than how to install it, though.
gollark: Much more convenient than multiplying by powers of 10.
