    Marion's second album seems to have more diminished hooks when it comes to comparing the emotional resonance of 'Wondervisions', but it also feels more layered and it certainly deals out good vibes. As a bonus, I doubt anyone has guitar riffs as distinctive as Steve's.

    From Clapton to cosmic rock, Afro-pop and experimenting with dizzying ease. [Oct 2012, p.96]

    If there's anything wrong with Positive Force, it's that it's better suited as background music than bearing up to intense listening; while the guitar lines on most of the songs here are deliciously difficult to whistle, they're all essentially fairly similar.

    If you're willing to invest multiple listens, dividends of divine pleasure pay off in spades. [Aug/Sep 2012, p.122]
