ReviewsBloody Essential - "...That a man so brave should have channelled such raw humanity into one of the greatest soul albums ever made is something for which we should all feel privileged....the kind of band that could sigificantly change your life...", 4 stars out of 5 - "...An inspired set of blue-eyed soul celebrationals, topped by Rowland's yodelling, hyper-passionate vocals. Fabulous stuff...", Ranked #4 in Nme's "Top 5 Reissues of the Year"., 4 stars out of 5 -- "The songs were hallmarked by Rowland's passionate wail and his intense lyrical vision.", 7 Out of 10-"...An Attractive Raggle-Taggle, Dungareed Take on Urban Soul...", 3 stars out of 5 -- "This might convince you Dexys were at their best when they were at their most impure -- at their most insecure, lustful, ambitious....A pop triumph..."
Additional InformationRemixed version of the classic album with bonus discs of rarities and a stunning live show from 1982., Thrilling amalgam of big-band soul, rambling rock & roll, and Celtic music powered by Kevin Rowland's mercurial vocals and wild genius.
