Plays Bob W. and other selections is the first real Fig Leaf album, and having reviewed Fig Leaf's other two albums already, I found this more difficult to review than I had anticipated.

The music is quite similar to 'The Humble Poet', (Fig Leaf's second album) with the wonderful sounds of the Hammond Organ that Fig Leaf have incorporated into their sound, coupled with the stunning guitar work from Aage and the lovely vocals from Par, this is another extremely good album.

To be honest, I cannot really pick out any one favourite, as all of the tracks on this album are just superb. All I can say is that, if you haven't bought any Fig Leaf albums yet, then I suggest you start here and get this album first.

On viewing the cover, I was immediately drawn to the smoking chimneys and the green cow, which made me think of Pink Floyd (Animals and Atom Heart Mother) and to a degree I would have to say that fig Leaf's music have some Pink Floyd influence as well as King Crimson, Genesis, ELP, Zappa, Santana, Hendrix, The Stones, The Who, Yes, Megadeth and Peter Hammill.

Highly Recommended!!!
