Title: Resisting the wine puns is hard ....
Review: It's so tempting to title this review "vintage Al Stewart". Even the press seems to be unable to resist. (All the UK reviews I've seen of this disk fall prey.) The thing is,it IS a wonderful disk, full of Al's trademark wordplay and subtle musical brilliance. "The Night That the Band Got the Wine" is a long and funny tale that basically says "Vino Veritas", and "Down in the Cellar" is simply so beautiful it has moved some people to tears. If you enjoy Al Stewart's work, you simply MUST by this as an import while they are working out the kinks in the US release. You won't be disappointed.
Is the review positive or negative?
