Fortune’s Wheel, a four-person group dedicated to medieval music, is notable for the personal charm of its members.
Unlike many performers of this repertoire, who attempt to imitate an impersonal, almost instrumental sound, Knutson and Cummings deliver the songs as intense expression of human feeling…Even their faces reflect the moment-by-moment emotions…It is an approach that works splendidly, forcing the audience to hear these songs not as archaic relics but as living art.
Fortune’s Wheel approaches everything with a genial brio and intensity of purpose that draws the listener deep into the music-making.

In 1990, their song ”Wheel of Fortune” began to take off throughout Scandinavia, proving that the band had some star quality.
While the song is fair because of its production, when compared to others it just lacks the feel and strength that can be found on different songs, take ”Young and Proud” for a good example.
From the “getting up and moving on” song ”Don’t Turn Around” to the “kiss me baby” track ”Waiting for Magic,” many of the songs start to sound alike after a while – which is one of the album’s overall shortcomings.
