Rick, himself, who produced the album, is now unofficially 039the fifth Starsailor039, or, as Walsh puts it,34another creative in the room who really cares about the songs and pushes us to our limits.34Over the past two decades, Starsailor have been compared to everyone from Neil Young and Van Morrison, to Wigan compatriots, The Verve Walsh cites the latter039s homecoming show in front of 33,000 people at Haigh Hall on 24th May 1998 as a revelatory experience although, concurrently, perhaps we should add Tim and Jeff Buckley, as well as Arcade Fire to that increasingly debatable list. Whatever your pronouncements on the matter, one thing039s for sureWhere The Wild Things Growbears up to candid analysis, repeat listens proving it to reveal layer upon layer of casual observations and quiet reflections on life being loved, and love being lived.
