Q Magazine (7/93, p.86) - 4 Stars - Excellent - "...Exquisite rather than lush, the music is not only sensually brilliant but exactly catches the subtle paradoxes of Fagen's dreamworld....Fagen's laconic voice of muted anxiety casts a soft blue light on this gleaming musical roadster..."
Melody Maker (5/29/93, p.35) - "...miraculous...."
