Information about album:
From Allmusic Guide (4 stars): "In 1995, the Rheostatics were commissioned by the National Gallery of Canada to write and perform a piece for the Group of Seven's 75th anniversary. Another slight diversion from the band's history of bent but listenable pop music, the Group of Seven release is more instrumental soundscapes, incorporating the voices of Queen Elizabeth, MacKenzie King, the Dief, and more. Although it's not representative of the rest of the group's albums, it's perhaps the most accessible album for a general audience who may not be familiar with the group's pop work. As an historical note, it's also the first album to feature multi-instrumentalist Don Kerr, who filled in on the sticks after Dave Clark went off to do other projects."
