Review:
A very good album
Although I can see that they're all really good, I know that
many people love their work and they're all people I'd expect to like I've
never quite got into the music of any of these three, somehow. However, I like this combined effort very
much. There's all the songwriting skill
and musical excellence they have shown individually, and this time it really
speaks to me.
The sound is generally harmonic, rich and atmospheric
without being over-produced. It's also
quite varied in style, which I like a lot.
To choose a few tracks almost at random, Delirium sounds something like
a cross between Pentangle and The Mamas & The Papas, and the 60s are often
close at hand with an almost psychedelic feel in places. 1000 Miles Away is more jazzy and Sade-like, Supermoon
has the feel of contemporary Americana
from largely acoustic singer-songwriter and Why Do We Fight reminded me
strongly of The Carpenters – which is just fine by me.
I'm enjoying this album very much (and far more than I
expected to). It's thoughtful,
beautifully crafted and very listenable and I can recommend this warmly.
