Description/Reviews:

For those aware of the Project’s regular output, there are not many stylistic surprises here. Martin concentrates very much on the song first, as opposed to any great instrumentally extended flights of fancy, being more in the vein of a Steely Dan or 10cc finely-crafted sound than any great bombastic endeavours. Taste, restraint and painting a delicate ‘pen-picture’ in words and music is very much the order of the day, and in this case – as if to emphasise the unified whole of the album – we even open with an ‘Overture’, titled My Muse And I, or The Blue Door Overture. And a very strong opening it is too, introducing us to the general feeling and ‘vibe’ (if we are allowed to still use that grand old word these days!) of the whole piece.
