The following is a review written by Lismor/Iona Records of Scotland:

Newfoundland is an island in the Atlantic Ocean near Canada. It has a rich cultural heritage, settlers on the island include people of Irish, Scottish, English, French, Spanish, Portuguese and Basque origin. Jim Fidler, singer/songwriter and multi instrumentalist, is influenced not only by the different cultural heritage of his home, but also by different musical styles as Classical, Bluegrass, Folk and Trad music, Ska and Reggae, and by as diverse musicians as Bob Marley, J.S Bach, Christy Moore, The Police, Supertramp etc.

Jim has a very effective way of presenting his original music, a blend of exciting songwriting with an excellent band. Actually, his band is quite special, as apart from very little help on some of the tracks, Jim himself is the whole band. He plays on this CD 12 different instruments, and of course he sings. The music sounds often traditional or at least based on traditions, though it is all written by Jim. A nice addition to this great album is the informative booklet in three languages (English, French and German).
