'My album of the year'

Robert Elms, BBC Radio London


'One of the few albums which warrants the listener to hang on every word ... without exception, I found every song totally absorbing.'

Maverick Magazine *****

THE PULL's twelve evocative songs range from the unadorned guitar picking of 'Sorrow' and the sepia dustbowl snapshot of 'Sharecroppers' to thrilling all-out gospel attack on 'Lonely People' and the album's title track.

'High Times & Low Times' is a pithy social commentary, while 'North Star (& The Drinking Gourd)' reminds us of the Afro-American slaves' longed-for heavenly destination. Kreg thinks about settling down on the touching 'Aileen', but on the exhilarating Afro-Celtic 'The Man Without a Care', the road - the musician's home - beckons. In each of these and the other songs on this superlative album, Kreg draws on his richly varied past - sailor, farmhand, teacher, mountain guide - and his current view of his homeland, to evoke vivid, sharply poetic scenes of his America, scenes that have a poignant relevance for us all.
