THUNDERHEAD, Spencer's 1995 release, is still available. It is a collection of eleven original works, including the improvisational title track.
"Lyrical and honest, Spencer Welch's Thunderhead exhibits a pianist comfortable with the solo medium. No slick production smothers the pieces, for there is no need. With economy and precision, each composition expresses a direct ideal. Welch's musical vocabulary is profound. From Jarrett to Gershwin to Chopin, he easily fuses varied styles to suit his muse. Half the fun is identifying those allusions. Spend the other half enjoying a purely original composer whose gift is also ours."
