BROTHERS AND FOOLS EP REVIEW:
Cuckoo Rass established themselves as not only a compelling live band but also as a cerebral recording act. The four tracks featured here are superb, veering with an exquisite balance between sparseness and lushness. Highly professional work, thoroughly recommended!!
Eamonn P Keyes, Sound Engineer "The Answer"
RADIO DJ:
