Interviewed in the Grimsby Telegraph, Williams said the album's title track was inspired by an article in the newspaper in January 1985, where a 14-year-old Williams showed off his obscure collectables and curiosities.[1]

Nick Wakeman reviewing for Musical Theatre Review gave the album 5 stars and said, "...why did I constantly play this album on repeat for about three hours? ...it may have something to do with the silky-smooth tones of Gary Williams’ voice rendering songs I had never heard before but I am sure I will be hearing a lot more of in the near future"[2]

Jazz critic Michael Ferber said, "This album is of outstanding excellence…"[3]

gollark: Well, yes, negative utilitarianism bad.
gollark: You can actually apply this to lots of things, like how the memetic evolution process doesn't select for "good" ideas but good-at-spreading ideas.
