"The Tom and Barbara Goode of the folk scene strike again, as Jo Bartlett and Danny Hagan, hosts of the back-to-the-land Green Man Festival, edging ever closer to popular acclaim with their distinctive take on traditional music. Embracing a back-to-basics approach to recording, and life in general, Bartlett and Hagan have far surpassed their previous work with a collection of songs that lifts the heart and brightens the spirit in one fell swoop. Flying in the face of accepted folk music subject matter, not a single horse-thief is hanged, no lovelorn sailors are shipwrecked far from home. The duo have created a true modern classic. From the opening track and sing-along-single 'God's Closed His Eyes' with it's crowd friendly "na na na" chorus to the bass-driven 'Spoken Word', where syncopated head nodding is legal requirement, this album is a guilt free joy from beginning to end.
