"Nick (keyboardist for the Enid and Steve Hackett) produced much of this remarkable CD. How did I miss Duncan Browne when he was still with us!? I do, however, remember hearing some of Duncan's music over the years. This CD is first-rate (I share Janis's comments from above). The variety of styles and musicianship are wonderful. It is a huge loss that Duncan is no longer with us. In some respects his work is similar to (and a combination of) the works of Anthony Phillips and Andy Pratt. Great guitar, keyboards, melodies, harmonies, lyrics and everything else. This CD is well worth the price."

My all-time favorite!

"I first heard Duncan Browne when they released the first Metro CD. I absolutely loved Metro. Together with Peter Godwin and Sean Lyons they created some very inspiring Bowie-ish progressive, new-wave styled rock. Excellent and ahead of it's time. When Duncan left Metro
in the late 70s he started his solo career writing and playing progressive guitar rock laced with a Bryan Ferry type approach. Ducan was a great guitar player. This CD, although sadly his last work, was elegant and excellent. (Where are the old Metro albums on CD?)"
