Entertainment Reviews:

Rolling Stone - 7/19/01, p.53
4.5 stars out of 5 - "...An instant classic...a hip tour of the black music diaspora...dancing between styles, often in the same song....sounding as fresh today as it did in 1989..."
Q - 6/00, p.70
Ranked #49 in Q's "100 Greatest British Albums" - "...A good UK soul record....Melding reggae, hip hop and soul, CLUB CLASSICS unveiled that since-oft-imitated laid-back bassline, strewn with sweeping strings, flutes, and melodic vocals..."
Alternative Press - 7/95, p.116
"...a refreshing mix that transcended house, soul and hip hop without shunning them..."
