Reviews
Below is my review for this release and the ratings. |
Following on from the Sailing by RESL 15 release, it seems this is another example where the musicians particularly hadn't done enough practice before recording this! I wasn't quite sure why so many people were into the HMS Ark Royal though, which is what this programme was about. |
