Count legendary Fairport Convention stickman Dave Mattacks and XTC guitargonaut Dave Gregory among the stellar guests on board for "Cycle," the long-awaited collaboration between ex-Headlight and Roger McGuinn sideman Steve Robinson, and award-winning singer/songwriter Ed Woltil of The Ditchflowers. Their songs veer from sunny to frosty, poptastic to sarcastic, quirky to stately, and back again. "Brilliant melodies, beautiful harmonies and songwriting that captures the best of Anglo and American Pop." -- Curtis Ross, Tampa Tribune
