No more recordings like this please Review written by John Fitzgerald, April 3rd, 2005 Rick is only listed as rhythm, 12 string and slide guitars on this album but it doesn't say which songs he's on. To make matters worse, Mayall strangely enough sounds better on the more pop orientated songs than the blues ones which is not a good sign for an artist with his background in the blues. Even then, the pop isn't that great. The forced energy on the rocker "Take me home tonight" sounds badly dated for it's time and Mayall seems half hearted about the idea of doing a fully fledged piano ballad in "Falling" so it definitely sounds half baked. There's some passable moments like "A bigger slice of pie" & "Consideration" if you can excuse the harmonica solo being fed through one of those Peter Frampton tube things. The blues numbers just miss the target altogether. "Hard going up" has no improvisation and the solo work on "Wild new lover" is drowned in a sea of horn and harmonica scratches that attempt to be meaningful which doesn't help this closing slow dirge. If you're gonna get Mayall, you might as well get what he's been known for and this isn't it.
