For the most part this album just isn't my thing, to be honest (too floaty soulful jazzy type of thing). However I am able to appreciate the talent in the songwriting and compositions, with some great instrumentation and harmonies going on. Track 2, Bonny, is superb, and worth the entrance fee. Apart from one or two others, the rest sound incredibly dated now as they really made use of what was the current synthesizer trends - most of which are very cheesy now!
