Reviews
"It's a sensational set, electrifying music from across the decades and Badger's many modes."


 * - Jo-Ann Greene (allmusic)

"Being a perfect companion to the previous collection of Lo-Fi Acoustic Excursions, this one features the same line up of Mike Badger-related bands, this time around plugging in for an electrifying set of demos, live takes and even dub versions."


 * - Goran Obradovic (Popism)

"For those of you who are still unaware of him, Badger is actually a Liverpudlian cult hero of some repute and one whose voice deserves to be heard loud and clear..."


 * - Tim Peacock (Whisperin and Hollerin)
