About the Album#
The title track is one of the most celebrated songs in the band’s catalogue.
It reached number 37 on the UK Albums Chart and represents the full flowering of Mike Scott’s ‘Big Music’ — an ambitious, expansive rock sound incorporating violin, piano, and an almost liturgical grandeur.
