Though far removed from his former day job with prog rock enthusiasts Utopia, there is more than a hint of his frequent employer Todd Rundgren throughout, particularly in a song like "Fell in Love for the Last Time, " where Todd's earnest and wistful breeziness casts an unmistakable influence. It's part and parcel of a consistent whimsy that keeps the material unencumbered and carefree, be it the McCartney-esque "The Traveller, " the irresistible balladry of "Clocks All Stopped" or the absolutely infectious "God of Low."
