Quotes
"With some decent equipment and somebody steering us it could have been as fine as the Average White Band"— David Coverdale
"The funkiest Scottish band ever, these soulful emulators of Sly and the Family Stone and James Brown prove they can get into a solid groove with excellent arrangements like "Pick Up the Pieces." This treasure brims with dominant saxophones, jazzed-up rock production, great harmony vocals and some of the best drumming in the genre. But the less-impressed quip the '70s outfit "really lives up to their name."— Zagat Survey Music Guide - 1,000 Top Albums of All Time, 2003
