    Best NY album for many a year. Great riffs & Neil's voice is on top form. Songs aren't all as strong as they maybe should be but the overall package is very good!

    The veteran rock 'n' roller manages a few neat tricks on this sprawling head-spinner.

    It is his most enjoyable and well-rounded one in, like, an eternity.
