Reception
The Allmusic review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine awarded the album 3 stars and stated "With songs like this, there's no question that Wilson is going for a wide audience, and while these smooth, funky grooves will do nothing for jazz purists, it's an entertaining record, and some of the grooves are quite hot indeed".[2]

gollark: I'd prefer it if we had a helper function so it could be `WHERE permissions & permission('deploy bees')` or something.
gollark: It isn't particularly low-level that "numbers are composed of bits".
gollark: However, SQLite integers *are* a mere 64 bits (signed).
gollark: And give it to SQL.
gollark: Again, we can write a function for it.
