All Jigged Out ? Wish Hill (Hobgoblin Records HOBCD1004)
""The opening few bars of this tremendous instrumental album will immediately catch your attention! For those of you who can cast your mind back to Moving Hearts or early Davy Spillane you?ll feel comfortable in an indulgent sort of way and those who can cast their mind even further back there are touches of Vladimir Cosma who wrote the inspired score for the David McCallum TV version of ?Kidnapped?. This sense of grandeur explodes from arrangements such as ?The All-Knowing Salmon/McArthur Road? featuring the band?s jazz/folk cross-over brilliantly with a Grapelli-esque Benjamin Lee (fiddle) sparring with the flute of Philippe Barnes. Tom Phelan (Piano) and Ollie Boorman (percussion) prove no slouches either when it comes to accompanying the death defying instrumental leads laying a solid foundation of rhythm that just makes you want to dance. This is a staggering debut from a band that should see them as late-night festival headliners in no time at all. Brilliant!"" Pete Fyfe
