Fact #28209

According to no less an authority than Tim Elsenburg, leader of Sweet Billy Pilgrim, Hi Fi News was the first publication ever to review their 1995 debut album. Naturally, then, we're delighted to be able to announce that the universal five star reviews which have greeted their third offering suggest that everybody else seems to have fallen in line with us. For Crown And Treaty, Elsenburg and his chums have crafted songs that are more immediately accessible than before but without abandoning the distinctively ethereal vocal harmonies, eclectic instrumentation and imaginative arrangements that made their earliest songs so captivating. This is, quite simply, the finest psychedelic folk album anyone has ever released.
