Industry Reviews 7 - Very Good - ...a booze-soaked tribute to the classic jump blues style of Louis Jordan, Big Joe Turner and the crows out of DUMBO. It's as slick as a Brylcreemed stoat, and the perfect accompaniment for a lost weekend of bon vivant dipsomania... NME (11/19/1994)
3 Stars - Good - ...The lounge lizard gone defiantly to seed....A collection of drinking songs which make Shane MacGowan's pickled persona look positively watered down....The syncopated swing of the Uptown Horns provid[es] a rocking counterpoint... Q (01/01/1995)
