"I have to wonder if the awkward release is the reason this record isn’t getting much traction here. I thought Part I was as good as anything that came out last year and part II is as good as anything that came out this year. That makes it… the Album of 2022-‘23?"  Reply

"Great compilation. Hard to condense only so many songs into one album from a library that could of easily filled another whole album of epic tracks. But what's on this is well deserved. An essential for those who can't be bothered with the studio albums"  Reply

"A great eighties album which still sounds fresh to me today. Good flow from start to finish. 'The Riddle' and 'You Might' shine through as favourites for me. I remember seeeing Nik Kershaw at the Cornwall Coliseum in the eighties and was so impressed when he moved from keyboards to guitar to drum..."  [+]  Reply

"Like so many others, Public Enemy blazed a trail, but were left behind by those who surged forward through the door they kicked open. Hip-hop had evolved, and Public Enemy hadn't. This album is forgettable."  Reply

"Jamie comes back after a period away with his best work. You can tell some of the songs were written in an earlier era, but the best songs on the album (The Old Style Raiders/Between The Rocks/Old Republican) rank up there with Sheila and Zombie in the pantheon of his best. 50,000 Unmarked Bullet..."  [+]  Reply
