    Though the fatalistic title number sticks, there's a reason Ellis shares his most memorable copyrights with James Brown.

    The songs aren't quite up to the mark. You can't fault the performances though. [Dec 2007, p.121]

    Elegant backgound music, better live, you suspect. [Dec 2007, p.98]

    The band replicates the surface effect of Otis Redding ballads, New Orleans jams and Motown pop-soul down to the last tambourine rattle, but their material rarely goes deeper than nostalgic genre exercises--which means it never satisfies like the real thing.
