Whistler is one of the forgotten 3 men progressive folk band from early '70's from UK. The release only one album in 1971 named Ho hum. The music is gentle and soft orchestrated, nice parts from mellow to more up tempo, with some good passages. Soft and delicate, yet melodic, confident and self-assured, this Deram act's only album resides somewhere between period UK country rock (Cochise, Quicksand, Southern Comfort, Quiver) and singer-songwriterdom (Mike Maran, Pete Atkin, Tony Hazzard) with plenty of light and shade thrown in from both sides. Featuring crème de la crème of Britain's studio scene and aided by a sympathetic and lush production, this band manages to produce twelve superbly orchestrated tracks full of energy, effervescence, vigour, character, rich flavour and originality.
