Title: First NPP print review?
Post by: The Shift on March 21, 2015, 11:55:09 AM
Latest (May issue) Uncut magazine gives NPP very favourable 8/10 review (note: of the seven albums reviewed on that page, they all get eight out of ten, except one which gets a mere seven!).

Review's about 100 words long, probably a little less. Includes "… the closing track, 'The Last Song', is Brian's lament for the band's messy break-up…". 

And: "But Wilson's chord changes are as heart-wrenching as ever, and bathed in heavenly harmonies: particularly on the Martin Denny-ish 'Half Moon Bay" (featuring trumpeter Mark Isham) and the a cappella 'Our Special Love' (featuring Peter Hollens)."

Reviewer is John Lewis.
