    Law is the perfect Indian-summer morning garage sale soundtrack album. It follows the mood flow to a T.

    Only "Pot of Gold" falls short of being a winner because honestly, no one on earth can make sub-Starship '80s rock sound good. The rest is darn good though, and shows that Rado has more ideas than one band can hold, and also the skills to turn them into little nuggets of weirdo pop gold.

    Rado might be derivative, but at least there’s an admirable consistency to his prodigious output.

    Too many quirky ideas plague it from finding an identity, which says more about Rado than his own music.

    Law and Order attempts to restore some sort of musical faith, but comes across as sounding like a narscisstic debut that only Jonathan Rado really understands.

    There's some gold in this wonky album, but you'll have to muscle through a lot of muck to find it. [Aug-Sep 2013, p.93]

    Fun and charming in places, barely listenable in others.
