The song "Little Piece of Heaven" was covered by the Neville Brothers on their 1999 LP, Valence Street. [9]
The Independent wrote: "There's little innovation in evidence here but Charles & Eddie's various takes on early Seventies soul modes are done with such obvious affection and care it's usually possible to hear beyond the influence to the emotion." [10]
