This is folk with flutes and pixie dust. I can imagine sitting in a field listening to this with a girl in a flowery dress dancing around me. This album has a chilled feel about it that suddenly goes up-tempo into a Prog-Rock explosion mixed with early blues. I don’t mind this, I went to the ‘High Voltage Festival ‘ a few years ago and I checked out some of the music going on in the Prog tent and I quite enjoyed it like ‘Marillion’.

This has some nice pan pipes like all ‘Jethro Tull’ stuff. You can also get the highland feel from ‘Ian Anderson’ this is classic 70’s folk rock. I think songs that sound out on here are ‘Banker bets Banker’ and ‘Woten Bassett Town’ and I have actually been to that town and it does have the feel of this album. I could quite happily be there listening to this.

I wouldn’t go out and buy this myself it’s not really my cup of tea, but I would strongly recommend this to people that love this genre of music because I think this is very good for what I heard from the Prog-Folk genre so I can respect this as being a very good album.
