Rezensionen
»Doch in der altersmilden Rückschau muss man den Chinn/Chapman-Schützlingen eine faszinierende Eingängigkeit und eine unverwechselbare Leadstimme attestieren. Also darf Mann jetzt auch die Greatest Hits kaufen (oder der Herzdame schenken).« (Good Times, Juni/Juli 2016)
»Jetzt gibt es diese beiden LPs erstmals vereint als GREATEST HITS auf zwei weißen Vinylscheiben, alle Hits von “Lay Back In The Arms Of Someone” über “Oh Carol” und “Mexican Girl” bis zu “Needles And Pins”, ergänzt um vier Bonus-Tracks: “Number On My Wall”, “Little Town Flirt”, “Hey Baby” und “If You Think You Know How To Love Me” im Jay Frogg & Amfree Mix.« (Good Times, Oktober/November 2016)
