    A fitting tribute and a welcome opportunity to hear Miller’s unreleased songs and performances.
  2. 80
    Everyone has done their bit to honour the music and the man. The result is a record that hums with excitement and does Miller proud.

    This ace duets set builds around extant Miller vocals from vintage demos. [Nov 2016, p.96]

    While the production is just a tad too polished to feel as gritty as Miller's best '70s works, the music is nevertheless in that vein and many of the songs are quite good, particularly the gospel-drenched Elton John number "Where Do the Guilty Go?" and the swaggering "Way Past Midnight" (performed with Lewis).
