TIM HOLLIER

 One of the period's more distinctive singer-songwriters, 

Hollier usually co-wrote his songs, principally with Rory Fellowes. 

The songs explore isolation, nature, time, ancient landscapes and the world of dreams, 

but there are also a few pretty love songs. His fine voice blends well with John Cameron's 

orchestral arrangements. Such serious lyrical fare is uplifted by touches of woodwind 

and harp, conveying mystery and wonder rather than depression or fear. 

His least obscure song is probably Cameron's Flowers In the Morning. 

The second album has several live tracks, while the first and third have 

the more elaborate arrangements. Sky Sail is probably Hollier's finest moment

but it seems to have sold poorly at the time...(Tapestry of Delights)

This beautifully produced, elegant, and tastefully arranged album finally shows off 

Tim Hollier's voice to best advantage, with no more than a few backing instruments

 -- flute, tabla, and celeste stand out most prominently -- supporting his basic guitar and vocals. 

Filled with beautiful songs and gorgeous sounds, Sky Sail is Hollier's magnum opus, 

somewhere between Duncan Browne and Justin Hayward...(AllMusic)
