    This album is classic English pop Ska. If that’s not your genre it’s still listenable. There are some great pop tracks like work work work and Walking on the Wrong Side. Ranking Rogers magnum opus. Danceable beachable. RIP Roger. Thanks for upbeat work!!!

    Rooted in dubby pop and embellished with punchy horns, it captures the Birmingham group's maiden rebel sound. [Oct 2016, p.98]

    Unfortunately there's no left-field motion, no unexpected turns, none of the twist'n'crawl that separated them from the workaday pack. [Nov 2016, p.102]

    Songs like Fire Burn and Close The Door show the band still have a passionately political edge, and Bounce is a worthy addition to their canon.
