Review
Not a classic
Plainly quite a few
reviewers like Tudor Lodge very much, but for me it doesn’t add up
to much. They’re aiming for a sort of Pentangle/Trees/Fairport
sound in various places but they were nowhere near those great bands
in quality. For me, this is much more of an interesting period piece
than the “classic” claimed by the reissue blurb.
There are some nice
tracks on it and the album begins with some good songs, but overall
the material is pretty weak. Help Me Find Myself and Nobody’s
Listening, for example, are forgettable pop songs, redeemed to some
extent by good production and a fine backing band; I’ll listen to
anything that Danny Thompson is playing on but, great though he is,
much of this doesn’t merit ore than the occasional outing. Not
terrible by any means, but not really recommendable either.
