As this has already been addressed in the comments, I consider myself duly reprimanded on the matter. A correction may be forthcoming (though, equally, may not).

I’m pretty sure it’s not Paul McCartney, as the sleeve has it spelt Mcartney, so the review needs correcting methinks!

It certainly came as a pleasant surprise to me. I must seek this Opium out and give it a spin.

Love this album. Matt Berry rocks. Also check out Opium which is also most excellent.

Maybe so, though the album credits it as Paul McCartney. If it is the aforementioned (un)funny man, he stays true to type with a bad impression. I prefer to think of it as a blind-drunk Macca.

I think the McCartney vocal is Peter Serafinowicz.

Thanks Jon. Hope you weren’t too disappointed by the fact only the one song really has that Yes sound to it. You’re certainly right about the mighty Tull influence there, it’s like the Heavy Horses album with all its rustic referencing. As for Mike Oldfield, I have to admit I’ve never listened to any of his albums (Tubular Bells included), as they’ve never really appealed to the prog fan inside me. I do have a brother who has though, so maybe I can be spared ridicule of this intentional faux paus by mere association.

on the last track as i write. I was reminded of Ommadawn (Mike Oldfield) and Jethro Tull, of course. I’m quite excited to know there’s something like this coming out in 2009. Thanks for bringing this to our attention HFOS. And well done that man, Matt Berry.

no time to make a comment. I’m off to Mr Berry’s site now to download for free. Sounds a bit like Yes ? Don’t get in my way!!
