Editorial Reviews ...One of England's most enduring... NME (05/22/1993)
3 Stars - Good - ...[there's] something affecting in his single-mindedness...[Wyatt has] undoubted melodic gifts....a fair anthology of an idiosyncratic talent... Q (04/01/1993)
...it's Wyatt's intimate, plaintive voice, jazz-inflected melodies and brilliant use of space that really make the point, and powerfully. For aficionados, this re-package is still a must-own...for newcomers, it's a good starting point... Musician (07/01/1993)
