Record Mirror - Online Review Quotes

"'Lady Strange' and 'Mirror Mirror' boast the kind of lyrics one might associate with a singer who reckons Spandau Ballet are the most appalling band he's ever heard, whilst another stand out is 'Another Hit and Run'."

"The latter contains more of that familiar sex and drugs and rock etc imagery we've all come to know and love and though just a little cliched, the enjoyment with which it's delivered would make Mary Whitehouse salivate."

This and other archive concert reviews can be found on the show pages in the Tour History.
