Tapestry of Delights:
Deram collectors must wield quite some endurance. Sometimes their perseverance can be very rewarding, but more often than not they are confronted with the likes of Whistler. Backed by the very cream of the UK's studio musicians and aided by a sympathetic and lush production, this band manages to produce 12 tracks of completely similar sound and meagre melodic content. Even if all three vocalists sing nicely enough and all get songwriter's credits, the bulk of the material is weak or even downright boring. The band plays precisely though, but with this kind of half-folk there isn't much of interest to show for it. For completists only. Grout-Smith designed some brilliant cover art for this album. ~ (Marcel Koopman)
