Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating * * * * *

The image of the smoky back rooms in which the lively catch the attention of the sparkling and the animated, the streets of Harlem jumping with the new sound, proud of what the music speaks of, and somewhere on 121st Street the vivacious tones of a voice raised by an angel and given permission to wink and be coy like a devil sings songs of beauty, happiness and regret in equal measure.
