This particular Dave Stewart, Phil miller, John Greaves and Pip Pyle project/incarnation (although augmented by other musicians) which brought a concept that had been cooking since the Hatfield and the North days (and i would say even since the Egg group days) here reached a climax, a peak of creativity and a maturity in the playing which was the obvious result of so much composing, writing and gigging for so many years. Their unique brand of rock, jazz, classical and just plain brit quirkiness is a blend we'll never see again. Who has the time? who has the patience and love for THE MUSIC anymore? in our present world, not many, i tell you. The music in this album has to be heard to be believed. Each musician a particular voice that when together become a much stronger 'animal'.

I am not sure about the bottom end sound of this particular release (i felt it lacks the 'umph' of my lp and other previous cd release) although i did sense a bit more 'air' around the instruments and a slightly clearer spectrum.

This is one album you can't miss if you are into intelligent, tasteful, fun and challenging music. Also, if you like Rock and extremely great solos this is recommended.

A natural progression from Hatfield and the North, this is one of those albums that you dont want to stop playing. A reissue with cristal clear sound remaster by Spalax Music 1996, made in France.
