    Upfront mention is required for Jah Wobble's perceptive sleevenotes. .... Some big names are at work here, as the tracks are well sourced, but the weird one-offs, the curiosities and rarities offer up the best surprises: check Shoes For Industry's "Sheepdog Trial Inna Babylon" or Max Splodge's "Bicycle Seat (Dub)". [Jun 2026, p.66]

    The entire compilation is an incredibly fun listen, reaching into a multitude of unexpected directions to find rough-edged, rule-breaking material.

    Inevitably, the surprises thrill the most: Max Splodge produced into authenticity by dubmaster Dennis Bovell; Cook The Books opening Gone To Black with The Sweeney theme; The Ruts' despairing heroin lament Love In Vain. [Aug 2026, p.100]
