Reviews
Daily Telegraph.
"The perfect present for all those pesky Godchildren who seem to have everything, the only Peter and the Wolf that I've managed to sit through in it's entirety without wanting to smash the stereo system. I encourage you to place your Christmas orders now." (Daily Telegraph Arts & Books )

Daily Express
Prokofiev's prettily told musical story of the boy who killed the wolf has fascinated musicians and actors for years.
↓ more ↓Now the rock musicians want to tell the tale. In this version, we have Stephane Grappelli (cat) and Eno at the synthesizer (wolf) . Composer- musicians Jack Lancaster and Robin Lumley add to the excitement. (Judith Simons. Daily Express)

Melody Maker
Narration on the new rock Peter and the Wolf is performed by Viv Stanshall ( ex Bonzo Dog vocalist and the voice on Tubular Bells). A very sinister wolf from the keyboard of Brian Eno and a roster of great musicians ( It reads like a who's who of the rock scene) turn the old dog into a exciting new adventure. Jack Lancaster and Robin Lumley have stuck to the original story in a way- although they did rewrite the dialogue and have added new themes. This is without a doubt the very best version of Peter and the Wolf I have ever heard. Great music lads (C.W. Melody Maker )

Thanks, Jack, for rereleasing it!radiobase wrote on January 17, 2008
I first heard this album back in the '70s and thought it was so cool. I had it on cassette and a moronic resident of my college dorm destroyed it. I've been looking for it on CD for about 10 years. Finally found it. My search efforts were well rewarded. This album ROCKS! Almost every aspect of the performance is excellent. I especially enjoy Stephane Grappelli's rendition of Cat. My only complaint is that the sound quality is not as good as we've come to expect these days but that is more than made up for by the music itself. Thanks, Jack, for rereleasing it!
