-
MojoNov 21, 2012Landing On A Hundred is a strong comeback that hopefully won't be followed by another decade of silence. [Dec 2012, p.84]

Oct 30, 2012It's a knowing classic-soul revision, with Mr. Chesnutt openly indulging his vocal debt to Marvin Gaye. Lyrically he's still reaching for raw emotion and ripe provocation.
-
Jan 24, 2013Revealing and inspiring, Landing on a Hundred bangs on the headphones, but sounds like a minor masterpiece on your speakers.
-
Oct 29, 2012It's not perfect... Overall, though, this is a long overdue, welcome comeback.
