Details

Cuts like glass-lake-placid album opener 'Jack of Fools', 'Seaside' and the dreamlike 'The Dusty Floor,' recall the prime work of the influences he name-checks: Kevin Ayers, Robert Wyatt, Fairport Convention and Sandy Denny. Beyond that, the album manifests his love for psych-prog ground-breakers the Soft Machine ('Tombre En Morceaux'), digs deep into cerebral ambient inspirations like Robert Fripp and Brian Eno ('My Protector') and krautrock icons NEU! ('Dietrich Buxtehude') - references he'd previously explored with Steelism.
