    From glam-tinged art-rock to spellbinding chamber-soul, this ever-elegant examination of the heart and the mind is like Bukowski rifling through priceless musical boxes and releasing a thousand hummingbirds. .... Magnificent heaven. [Mar 2024, p.103]

    El Magnifico finds him much the same bruised piano troubadour, surveying red-blooded romantic scars. [March 2024, p.28]

    Bob and weave as he might, Harcourt never fails to land an emotional punch on El Magnifico.

    The yearning title track brings to a close an album that is quite probably Harcourt’s best since Here Be Monsters.

    It's the LP's sparer, outward-looking, more spontaneous-sounding songs which house the best melodies. [May 2024, p.85]
