A little less light-hearted than the debut, "Sun of Jamaica", and a little less sentimental than "Holiday in Paradise". "Mama Coco" and "Love Tequila" should appeal to those who love the fun side of this band while "Day After Day (How My Time Drifts Away)", not surprisingly given the long title, is more relatable for those with a broken heart! Overall, a balanced effort.

A paradise of joy and an island of dreams. It's kitschy, but perfectly harmless! Surely I can't be the only one who's a little touched by such sentimental words as "Fly, fly away, fly away my flamingo", can I?
