    I liked! I don't knew this band and it was a while ago that I don't hear anything different. Listening to this album brought me a nostalgia, it may seem a little exaggerated, but it reminded me of Disney's productions when they focus on Africa or any kind of plot that involves something tribal. For sure this band gonna be present in my playlist.

    They're doing nothing radical, but the band, now in their 35th year of playing together, are tight and the results pleasing. [Oct 2013, p.96]

    It all hangs together quite nicely if, as ever, rather uninvolvingly.

    Lead singer Duncan Campbell does a fine job on his second album after the departure of his brother Ali, and with inspired song choices meeting an inspired band, Getting Over the Storm doesn't come off as a gimmick but a gift.
