Reverberation was recorded in 1990 by the line-up built around Noel Burke on vocals, with Jake Brockman on keyboards and Damon Reece on drums after the death of Pete de Freitas. Geoff Emerick, the former Beatles engineer, produced. The album did not generate much interest among fans or critics, and it sold poorly. Warner Bros dropped the band, and the group broke up in 1993.
Brockman played mellotron and Farfisa, Adam Peters added cello and piano, and the guests included players of cimbalom, dholak, harmonium, sitar and tar shahanai.
