Synopsis

Album Description
2009 digitally remastered and expanded edition of this album, appearing her for the first time on CD. Revisit the mid 70's with this gem of an album from one of the purveyors of finely crafted songs and sublime harmonies. This album was to prove to be the final SB&Q album and was produced by Bruce Welch of the Shadows. It showcases the writing and performing talents of brothers Iain and Gavin Sutherland, who between them were responsible for great International hits such as 'Sailing' and the 'Arms of Mary'. Lemon.

Well-crafted pop rock
AJ Scheiber | Minnesota, USA | 06/03/2009
(4 out of 5 stars)

"Although they were reaching the end of the line as a band, Sutherland Brothers and Quiver maintained their high level of song craft and performance on Down to Earth. It's still a mystery to me why these guys weren't huge--they had a great drummer in Willie Wilson, a stunning guitarist in Tim Renwick (who plays PARTS that are integral to the arrangements, not just solos), and chorus hooks that won't quit from the two Sutherlands. Maybe it's the fact that their lyrics frequently avoid the usual cliches of subject matter and venture into darker, more philosophical areas ("Dark Ship" for instance). Anyhow, for anyone who liked previous SBQ records like "Reach for the Sky" or "Slipstream," I don't think you'll be disappointed with this one. As a bonus, this includes both the U.S. and British track lists (the U.S. version substituted three songs for others that appeared on the British release)."
