I wish I liked this album more than I do. Ashley Hutching's' latest combo to fly the Albion Band banner features the ubiquitous songstress Kellie While and the multi-talented Joe Broughton on fiddle, mandolin, keyboard and guitar. The trouble is, the album doesn't hang together. Sure it sounds like the band were having fun, but this is an album woefully short on quality. Two songs stand out: the soulful When My Son is Grown and She Still Waits. The majority of the album is humdrum and certain tracks like Cookery is the New Rock'n'Roll risk taking the Albions into Barron Knights territory. Even the excellent She Still Waits has its impact lessened by a spoken sub-Coney Island into, pretentiously titled It is That Window of Time. Road movies is a student film at best, and only of interest to die-hard Albion fans. Punters new to the group would be best advised to seek out the back catalogue and discover how they achieved their notoriety.
