| | Simon Finn - Pass the Distance - Review - Stylus Magazine |
 | | Curiously, and nearly soundlessly, the folk shamans and heady psychedelic denizens have usurped the status of the renegades of old; Incredible String Band records are going for as much as a commercial stove; and Nick Drake and Wizz Jones and Simon Finn are sedulously stranger, spookier, and scarier than a host of Mr. |
 | | As in the ostensible title-track, “Fades (Pass the Distance)”, Finn works through the song with a not dispassionate recitation, but in the track’s remaining seconds begins to ape some sort of idea of a besotted medieval madman, wandering about the heath spitting out a vocal refrain. |
 | | It’s impossible, of course, to determine if Finn, or Shatner, were taking drugs to make music to take drugs to, but there are some tell-tale signs present; lyrics, for one. |
