CAUGHT IN THE LIGHT

After two albums in a commercial and pop vein, in "Caught in the Light" the Barclay's return a little bit for the good old days. After the Wooly departure the band becomes a trio and stay to make an albuns with good songs in old style and bad songs in a pop style. An half of "Caught" is a good colection of songs in BJH style: John Lees's "Knoydart", "Forever Yesterday", "Once More" and "Ballad of" and Les Holroyd's "Copii Romania" and "Cold War". The highlights are: "Copii Romania" a beautiful ballad about the poor children of Romania; "Forever Yesterday" a acoustic song in old style; "Once More", a little return to "Mockinbird" (this is a nostalgic moment) and the best John Lee´s moment: "Ballad of Denshaw Mill". Because of this songs, this album is a little return to the past.
