Sunday Star Times: "Ed Knowles has a voice like old-school Robert Plant and a band with a true rock 'n roll balls-out kick. All that's great from the 60s and 70s is check-listed here but without that Kulashaker-fakery. And, what's more, those North Shore school kids have busted out of the covers style of their first album and written some real classics of their own. 4 and a half Stars."
