This track is.. ok

I find the guitar to be a bit irritating. I like the vocalist.

Singer sounds like one of the vocalists in Mary's Danish- don't know if it's the same person.

I had the luck of seeing them live in a gymnasium at URI when they opened for Toad the Wet Sprocket many years ago. They were AMAZING live. To that date, I had only heard "Spark" from "Fruit of Life" and immediately fell in love with them. Each member is an amazing musician in their own right and the had an absolutely magickal stage presence.

Anyone know what's happened to them?


I don't know if the Wild Colonials are still around, but their singer Angela McCluskey seems to be on her own now. I saw her last year opening for the Finn Brothers and she was great. Incredible voice.

Was CERTAIN that the intro was bringing on Robbie Robertson... I was a bit startled to hear a womans voice.
On the whole - I wish it had been RR goin down the Crazy river.....Now THERE'S a song.

Chord progression in main body of song and melody on top of it sound a lot like 'STILL BELIEVE' from the LOST BOYS soundtrack...



Oh yeah, that is what I'm hearing, too.

I came in to post that her voice reminds me of Natalie Merchant's. I miss 10,000 Maniacs.

ah yes, about time we got some of the Wild Colonial's wild stuff! Truly one of the outstanding albums of the 90s.

I love this album. Something about her voice and the screaming electric violin really do it for me.
