"Red Alert and Always Be There had a lovely sound. Bingo Bango reminds me of Papa's Got a Brand New Pigbag which is not an awful thing. Feels sweaty. Exciting to dance to. Keeps playing for a very long time. Good stuff indeed."  Reply

"Upbeat and poppy, though in a different direction than pre-Michael McDonald Doobies records. I like the older albums better, but there’s still great stuff here—mostly Here to Love You, What a Fool Believes and How Do the Fools Survive. Solid collection of songs."  Reply

"Great album. Great album. I didn't know who was until I heard this album. Oh, God, Lionel. You've been hurt. You've been hurt by somebody, that much is clear. Who hurt you, Lionel? Who hurt you?"  Reply

"This along with Albert Hammond Jr.'s albums gives me hope that even if the Strokes eventually splinter apart there will still be good music to be had from them. This is a very good album that is up there in quality with the strokes' work."  Reply

"Don't not be swayed by all of the negative and ambivalent ratings this deserves a much higher spot in these charts. Talented vocals, multifaceted dimensions, able to master the test of high volume levels. Absolutely bloody brilliant!"  Reply

"Very fun pop record and George has an amazing voice. Has a couple timeless classics (Wake Me Up, Careless Whisper) and some fun pop tracks (Heartbeat, Freedom.) I could listen to this for hours."  Reply

"This is a really excellent album from the very accomplished American metal shredder. Back in its heyday it was classed as metal, in this day and age probably hard rock.

"Solid metal. But, The mixing of this album sounds archaic, thus giving a slightly messy result, plus the guitars are put to the background, they do not really rule. Guitar solos do not convince me."  Reply
