Review:
Very dull
Reading the description and some rave reviews of this
obscure album from 1970 I thought it would be interesting. Sadly, it wasn't; I found it very dull.
Denny Gerrard was in demand as an arranger and as an
instrumentalist in the late 60s, but on this evidence he wasn't a very
distinguished songwriter and his singing was very uninspiring. There's a decent overall sound to the album,
but with weak material, rather banal lyrics and soporific vocals it really
doesn't add up to much for me.
I can't agree that this is a "lost gem". I think it's just another very average album
which may have sounded OK at the time but which has been understandable
forgotten. It plainly carries good
memories for some reviewers, but I'm afraid I can't recommend it.
