"The best tracks are the longer ones - The Blues You Sang slips so totally into the groove you forget where you are and what you are doing; and the near 16-minute improvisation of Halleluwah demonstrates that here is an album full of magical thinking, a fine example of how music operates without boundaries as a common international language and a source of cross-cultural unity".

"2016's "Everything Sacred" (...) was a quirky, surprising and sometimes intensely moving record ... Now the trio have reconvened for a second album that affirms their status as a living, breathing and functioning group, rather than just a rather brilliant one-off project ... Brimming with confidence, ideas and musicianship, these "Neuk Wight Delhi All-Stars" are a band of brothers at the top of their collective game".

"[They] may not quite be "stars", but the sound they conjure is often heavenly. Building on 2016's "Everything Sacred" debut, the 10 essays here oscillate between British and Indian traditional fare, plus a smattering of originals ... Standout "False True Piya" welds heartbroken folk chestnut "House Carpenter" to Khan's increasingly rhapsodic ululations, while the unfettered folk-exoticism of The Incredible String Band hovers benignly over music Yorkston calls a "common international language" - in these times that's a notion to celebrate".
