    It's bold, brassy and way more ebullient than a 75-year-old has any business sounding. [Jun 2012, p.112]

    The band is tight, the tunes are fine, and Ebo himself is on good form. But in general it simply lacks the power of his earlier material.

    It's a worthy addition to the oeuvre of Ghanaian Afro-pop, as well as a lively and entertaining album in its own right.
