"There's a real heart and soul to this wonderful music and tunes to match their contemories like REM, Teenage Fanclub and The Jayhawks. This is music of the highest quality available. There are great harmonies and many great songs from the pen of Daniel Wylie and two good co-writes with Stephen Fleming who recently took over the singing and the writing when Wylie left the group. Gary Cuthbert contributes a good co write in Still Your Mothers Son but the group no longer sound this good. They are still an good act and still better than the crowd. It's a sin Daniel Wylie has left the group cause he made the difference that is between great but is now only good minus him. Best songs are Ungrateful, Patience, Country Life and New Day Dawning which closes the album on a spectacular high point. It makes you need to hear it all over again. If you love harmonies and great songs, then this is for you. You might want to catch up on all their records and get the whole story and it's a good story to hear."
