    It’s not as consistently good as Now What?! and it doesn’t contain inFinite’s peaks. Nonetheless, it’s classy, enjoyable, and it’s certainly commendable to see legendary musicians who have nothing to prove, feel the desire to express themselves artistically.

    It's certainly brave. Whoosh! is superior when guitarist Steve Morse and keyboard player Don Airey slip their leashes. [Sep 2020, p.85]

    The best bits of Whoosh! blend lofty sentiments with earthier delights. ... The album would benefit from the 13 tracks being trimmed to single figures. [Sep 2020, p.28]

    This is an album that can and should be enjoyed without over-thinking.
