In our earlier years Cross Rhythms was inundated with tapes like this one, where earnest yet decidedly limited singer/songwriters would pass oft their dodgy bedroom demo recordings as troper albums. Standards thankfully have shot up but clearly not in Skipton. A kind of country-tinged pop sound, the melodies here are weak, the sound quality is muffled, the drum box ghastly and dear Martin has a voice a long way short of a quality vocalist. Every now and again the Scriptures on which many of these songs are based shine momentarily through, but this is still a depressingly amateurish effort.

The opinions expressed in this article are not necessarily those held by Cross Rhythms. Any expressed views were accurate at the time of publishing but may or may not reflect the views of the individuals concerned at a later date.
