Prog-Rock / Art Rock / Pop-Rock

This first real "album" release by Stewart/Gaskin reached a level of sophistication rarely heard on pop/rock albums. Every track sounds like a labor of love, with no fillers. Starting with a lush and emotional exploration of a Billy Bragg song with a touching Tamla Motown theme, "Levi Stubbs' Tears", and continuing with the exquisite ballad "Grey Skies" (about the English weather, and England), "Subterranean Homesick Blues" (a savagely deconstructed, choppy electronic version of the old Dylan song), "Mr. Theremin" (a tribute to the Russian inventor),"The Big Idea" goes from strength to strength, finally culminating in the monumental "New Jerusalem", a sonic epic on the dangers of nationalism complete with 25-voice Welsh choir, the pipe organ of St. Georges Hanover Square, and drums recorded in the Grand Canyon.
The stand-out is a cover of The Blue Nile's "Heatwave", a beefed-up, cinematic (8 minute) expedition through shifting styles, moods and textures that removes all pretense of innocence from the original.
