Reception

The Chicago Tribune review by Mo Ryan states "This instrumental Chicago quartet plays a funky, low-down, utterly addictive combination of rock, blues and jazz, one that seduces the listener with captivating grooves and rock-solid rhythms."[2]

In an article for the Chicago Reader, John Corbett notes that "While their earlier tunes tended to emphasize a sound very reminiscent of the New Orleans funk essentialists The Meters, their latest batch of original numbers (only one cover, an odd, obscure James Brown hummer called 'In the Middle') is less singular in its references."[3]
