"The original female vocalist with Fairport Convention (...), subsequently briefly part of Giles, Giles and Fripp and then one half of Trader Horne, Judy Dyble left the music business in 1973. She went on to work as a librarian before making a surprise guest appearance at Fairport's 1981 annual reunion and began writing and recording again in 2003 ... In 2017 she sang one of the songs on Grimspound by Big Big Train fronted by multi-instrumentalist David Longdon, which led to the two of them collaborating on this prog-rock/folk epic, a project which, sadly, has now proven to be her last work ... Featuring both lyricist Dyble and composer Longdon on vocals and autoharp with the instrumentation including 12-string, strings, flute, organ, mandolin, e-bow, harmonium, glockenspiel and much more, perhaps inevitably there are several lines that allude to her illness, but generally speaking, it's a work suffused with optimism ... Over her solo albums, Dyble showed an enthusiasm to experiment with different musical forms and textures as well as the use of often metaphysical, symbolic and expressionist imagery and, while this might not prove the work for which she is most remembered, it's a bittersweet understatement to mark what was and is her finest hour"
