"In the liner notes Harry Sinclair (Director of POM) writes that he was driving through the green rolling hills of New Zealand and cows were staring at him. He heard "The Enchanted Lake" on the radio and envisioned a love story taking place in this type of setting. These images in his head became "The Price of Milk".For those of you who have seen the movie (and if you haven't, please do!), this CD will bring back memories of the cows, the quilt, and the craziness! Even if you haven't seen the movie, the soundtrack is beautiful. And, as you listen to it, your head will run wild with magical thoughts of your own.Enjoy!"
