Who is the UK's greatest ever bluesman?:

Rock 'n' Reel Review - July 2008

The Band’s fourth album finds them live in the studio, keeping the balance between blues and rock, maintaining a high energy level and with some intelligent song writing in evidence on thirteen original songs, with singer, guitarist, keyboard player and bandleader Adam Norsworthy writing or co-composing a dozen of them.

The Mustangs are an accomplished and very entertaining four-piece. The rock numbers show a variety of influences, from not unexpected names such as The Kinks or The Yardbirds through to the likes of Dire Straits, Neil Young and The Arctic Monkeys (to remind us they are indeed a contemporary outfit). The blues tracks often sound fairly conventional but odd chords and fills creep in-particularly from harp player Derek Kingaby-to confirm indeed that nothing, not even the twelve-bar format, stays the same.

The Band is often put into a blues-rock bag and the set finishes with a truly storming, ferocious title track that could be the very definition of blues-rock. The Mustangs say this is their best set yet and they could be right.
