Original press comment on Brothers in Brooklyn:

"... the most thrilling country rock debut album since Big Star" (4 Stars) - Q Magazine

"...it's clever, fresh-faced, melodic and it believes.'' (4 Stars) Independent on Sunday

''...sun-scorched twang...power-pop hooks and sweet harmonies'' 8/10 UNCUT

''Byrds, Neil Young, Petty...this may be your album of the year'' Happening Magazine

''This is an album with a powerful soul'' Fatea Magazine

"true grits n beans American sound that blazes with Hammond and Muscle Shoals rhythm. Elsewhere they've intelligently rethought their Big Star influence to resemble Alex Chilton's previous 60's group, the Stax indebted Boxtops while 'Brothers in Brooklyn' could be the Band stepping from a grainy lp sleeve with its honky tonk pianos and rhythms. The great, beefy bass intro meanwhile could have just waddled off from Booker T and the MG's Donald 'Duck' Dunn."
