Recommendations
Reviews
- I was an assistant engineer on some of the sessions for this album and I notice there are some errors in the original album credits that have percolated down from the original release to more recent ones.
The engineer on the album was Phill (two l's) Brown; the crumhorns on Weavers' Market were provided by Richard Harvey and Brian Gulland of Gryphon - I located them for the session. - great progressive rock music album with vocals somewhat reminiscent of Simon and Garfunkel sound. The tracks are in one continuous cross-faded mix and the album is intended to be played from start to finish on each side.
