Reviews
Q (11/01, p.144) - 3 out of 5 stars - "...Delivered the huge commercial success he'd always hoped for. It's fairly typical of his work, with nice lyrical touches and songs about love's elusiveness..." Paste (magazine) - "The title track and 'On the Border,' both Top 20 radio hits, are sophisticated and cinematic, exhorting listeners to step outside their own place and time."
Additional information
Personnel: Al Stewart (vocals, keyboards); Tim Renwick, Peter White (guitar); Graham Smith (harmonica); Phil Kenzie (alto saxophone); Peter Wood, Don Lobster (keyboards); George Ford (bass); Stuart Elliot (drums, percussion); Marion Driscoll (triangle); David Pack, Tony Rivers, John Perry (background vocals). Recorded at Abbey Road, London, England & Davlen Sound Studios, Universal City, California in 1976. Includes liner notes by Thane Tierney. Al Stewart had found his voice on Past, Present & Future and found his sound on Modern Times. He then perfected it all on 1976's Year of the Cat, arguably his masterpiece. There is no overarching theme here, as there was on its two immediate predecessors, but the impossible lushness of Alan Parsons' production and Stewart's evocative Continental narratives give the record a welcome feeling of cohesion that keeps the record enchanting as it moves from "Lord Grenville" to "Midas Shadow" to "Broadway Hotel," before it ends with the haunting title track. Along the way, Stewart doesn't dwell too deeply in any area, preferring to trace out mysteries with his evocative lyrical imagery and a spinning array of self-consciously sophisticated music, songs that evoke American and European folk and pop with a deliberate grace. This could be unbearably precious if it didn't work so well. Stewart is detached from his music, but only in the sense that he gives this album a stylish elegance, and Parsons is his perfect foil, giving the music a rich, panoramic sweep that mimics Stewart's globe-trotting songs. The result is a tremendous example of how good self-conscious progressive pop can be, given the right producer and songwriter -- and if you're a fan of either prog or pop and haven't given Al Stewart much thought, prepare to be enchanted. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine

- *****- Feedback left by buyer.Past yearVerified purchaseI would Highly Recommend this seller. The customer support and communication from the seller was great, they helped with any questions I had. My package was sent from the UK to Australia and arrived within 2 and a half weeks. The product is brand new, yet the box did get slightly banged up in the mail. That being said, it's nothing too noticeable but the seller may need to consider more protection when packaging. The price was great, and I am extremely happy to have my hands on this Funko Pop.
- *****- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseThis dvd arrived early. I contacted the seller about the dual Blu-ray and dvd about what region the Blu-ray was. I was told that the wrong photo was displayed and not the single Blu-ray disc that was for sale, and they were sorry for the mistake. They said that the single Blu-rat disc item was region B which would play in Australia, where I live. With this information I purchased this single Blu-ray disc and I am completely happy with the seller and their response and the disc.
- *****- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseVery happy with purchase, received a message that item had been dispatched only a day after ordering, and while no tracking details available, it arrived in only a week. Item is exactly as described and pictured, so very pleased with my purchase.
