He says: "A kind reviewer once likened my music to 'minimalist classical composers working on adventurous ballads for REM' so I've tried to channel that a bit - this is basically Michael Nyman's version of Find the River. I tend to only do covers if I'm going to take liberties with them. I chose Find the River quite instinctively and in hindsight I think it was because I'm less emotionally attached to it than some other REM songs. I was revisiting Automatic for the People to look for inspiration and was a bit too scared to touch Man on the Moon, Everybody Hurts or Nightswimming (although good on other people for trying) but I thought I could mess around with this one and live with myself. Hopefully other people can live with it too."

Jo Bevan is one of the best singers in modern rock. The band is tight and talented and does some nifty post-punky style stuff. This album has some exceptional songs on it. rick-taylor
