Reception

Brett Winterford from Sydney Morning Herald said "The album finds Moss in fine voice - better than in his Cold Chisel days." adding "but the album does lack some of the magic he is nostalgic for -something that only sparked when Cold Chisel's five sometimes-volatile characters were in the same room." [2]

JB HiFi said "Never has there been a more intriguing and satisfying fusion of rock, soul, jazz and blues and it’s all delivered in Mossy’s trademark laid-back style." [3]
