Here’s part of the review from Joynson’s
psych reference " Tapestry of Delights":
Julian Jay Savarin wrote and directed this rare concept album,
which is one for connoisseurs of progressive rock. It's full of
dramatic keyboard playing and equally dramatic semi-spoken
vocals from Cathy Pruden. Side one commences with the spoken
First Oracle, which is followed by The Coming Of The Mule,
an organ-led piece of progressive rock which is quite cosmic in places,
with appealing vocals from Pruden. Phantom City is again keyboard-dominated
but quite jazzy. The Black Tower is the weak link and previews the mediocre
music which plagues much of side two. Pruden's melodramatic vocals introduce
Alda, Park Lady Of The Outer Worlds and the side's final cut,
Altarra, Princess Of The Blue Women, features some delightful, melodic vocals
from Pruden rather in the style of US band The United States Of America.
Side two begins with another spoken oracle but is weaker than the first side
save for the album's finale and highpoint - the title cut which starts with
some haunting keyboards and features more vocal
melodramas from Pruden.
