    [Teenage Kicks is] arguablt not even the best song on this compilation. Wednesday Week's gorgeous melody, You've Got My Number's killer riff and the haunting, fragile Julie Ocean are superb, while we can even forgive them for their Human League-baiting My Perfect Cousin. [Mar 2020, p.101]

    He keeps the core of material such as The Nearness Of You and My Blue Heaven spare and the tone intimate. [Mar 2020, p.94]

    The sum total of this umpteenth solo long-player in 40 years is that the prodigious and progressive Landreth is his own man - a futuristic traditionalist. It's time that wider audiences took notice. [Apr 2020, p.88]
