Mention of Fern Knight:
"...With the (moderately) heavy hitters like
Banhart, Rossi, Nadler
and Arborea featuring at all ends of this record, it’s packed from
start to finish with quality. ‘The Cuckoo' kicks us off with
Alela Diane and
Mariee Sioux in a display of enjoyable finger-picked chords and female tones moving up and down the scale with ease.
Fern Knight’s
‘Our Mountain The Mother’ provides an early surprise as harps are
plucked, drones are held and she wails powerfully over the lot. Again,
it shows the worth in these compilations is not in the Nadlers – what
she does here is as worthy as ever, but it’d be a push to label it
‘unexpectedly good’ – but in thrusting forth relative unknowns..."
