"This is the perfect album from start to finish and the connection of the first and last song is very clever and brilliant musically. Every song is great but My Happiness is their gem along with Like A Dog, My Kind Of Scene and These Days. The album was voted best Australian album of all time on t..." [+] Reply

"Billed as his possible last album, PPD is a renaissance of sorts for the man, with the album revisiting one of his classic lp's - The Idiot. Whilst not as good, it is nice to hear him successfully come back with some of his best material in years." Reply

"This guy knows how to put an indie folk rock song together with many witty twists of phrase.

"A good follow up to, Diamond life. Promise, is a much more jazzy affair than it's predecessor with the use of brass much more prominent. Nice performances on this perfect late night, lights down album. Very good." Reply
