"Sounds better on VINYL!!!"


Stormy Six were one of the original five Rock-in-Opposition bands, but were (and remain) the most often overlooked for some reason. They were probably the musically least radical of the five bands (and politically the most radical), but they were still all fine musicians and I am genuinely very, very fond of them and this album, which I consider their first really great work. Using a lot of folk music influences and folk music instruments, this has a pleasing, heavily contrapuntal sound in both the instrumental and the multi-part vocal work that will definitely be of interest beyond the normal fans of R.I.O and appeal to fans of Gentle Giant and Jethro Tull in their folkiest moments. … Cliche, conceived as a soundtrack for a theatre piece and with help from jazz players Guido Mazzon and Tony Rusconi - waysidemusic
