Reviews

Mojo - David Hutcheon

You can hear the increasing confidence and the ability as the guitarists starting wigging out and the horns get wild. An absolute blast.

EVENING STANDARD - Simon Broughton

“sweet vocals, swinging saxophones and fizzing guitars”

***** (5 stars)

THE NEW YORK TIMES - Jon Pareles

The 28 songs collected on this double album range from delightful to downright mind-boggling, testimony to how well musicians can subvert specifications.

THE BEAT - Barry Eisenberg

Hats off and tossed already for this pair, golds and bests in show, Sterns Music’s recently released two-disc compilation .... is a dazzler, a knockout, too good.”

RFI MUSIQUE - Bertrand Lavaine (trans. Julie Stree

“as enjoyable to look at as it is to listen to!”

fROOTS - Con Murphy

“sumptuously packaged ... it fair makes you want to flick its enticingly readable pages in the face of every iPod-wired media bore that tries to tell us musical hard copy is dead. Not yet, it isn’t - not when artefacts such as this ooze such class from start to finish.”

SONGLINES - Martin Sinnock

“Stern’s reissue series is a magnificent and authoritative way to enjoy the treasures of one of Africa’s greatest musical nations.”

***** (5 stars) Top Of The World
