Description/Reviews:
Strawbs in their later, more prog, mode were sometimes compared to the likes of Moody Blues and even Supertramp. ‘The Ferryman’s Curse’ continues the acoustic pastoral vibe infused with occasional bursts of more frenetic guitar. It’s an easy and rewarding listen with highlights ‘The Nails From The Hands Of Christ’, ‘The Familiarity Of Old Lovers’, Lambert’s showcase ‘The Ten Commandments’ and the title track.Read the full review by David Randall at getreadytorock.me.uk
