"Whenever I think of this album, I remember listening to this on my Sony Walkman, doing my dumbbell reps and my dad coming in my room telling me the gulf war had started. Totally irrelevant to anything apart from I still love it the same as I did then as a teenager. Always loved their singles that..." [+] Reply

"One of the greatest improvisational jams ever recorded. Just 3 songs, pretty basic rhythms and harmonies that let Eric Dolphy do some of his better moves. The solos are crazy and the comping by Mal Waldron is something to behold. Ed Blackweel is as solid as ever." Reply

"A mild disappointment. The lyrics are insightful and well-written as always, but the uninvolving combination of spoken word and the subdued production doesn't add up to a great album." Reply
"Exuberant and playful female-led rock music. Not exactly post-punk, or new wave, (though there are some new wave synths), has more in common with mid to late 80's jangle-twee indie. Lots of great songs, though the abrasive guitars and high-pitched vocals get a bit tiresome. 'Too Big For Your Boot..." [+] Reply

"This may actually be Pharoah’s best album as a band leader." Reply
"The first cassette tape I ever owned. I still love listening to it. The first half is a lot stronger than the back half. David Coverdale started to figure out he could meld his blues based arena rock to the hair metal aesthetic and have a bunch of hits on his hands." Reply
"A heartbreaking tale. This is a perfect record for me, a couple of songs im not that into but great work nonetheless . Such an impeccable voice and incredible songwriting. If i were to list my favourites, it would take more than half of the songs here." Reply

"(This is an album wrapped up in the death of David Balfe's best friend. It explores beautifully all the angles of that grief, and all the memories David wants to reminiscence about with his friend. It's about dealing with grief, and trying to move on. Musically it's Spoken Word Poetry, House, Art..." [+] Reply
