"`At A Point Between Fate And Destiny: The Complete Recordings' comes in a clamshell box with each disc in its own cardboard mini-LP sleeve, `Mighty Baby' being a gatefold. The box set comes with a forty page full color booklet filled with photos of the band, album and single artwork and other memorabilia, a 12,000 word essay by David Wells and complete track annotations. The band sounds better than ever thanks to the remastering job of Oli Hemingway at The Wax Works. The box set finishes the story of The Action/Mighty Baby begun by Grapefruit's 2018 four disc set `Shadows And Reflections: The Complete Recordings 1964-1968' and will be greatly appreciated by fans of the groups, UK rock of the era, progressive and psychedelic rock fans and fans of 1960's and 1970's rock in general".

"6CD boxset with the complete recordings of Mighty Baby, the psychedelic/prog band that emerged from the last days of mod heroes the Action ... Mighty Baby's two official albums were quiet different, but satisfying. This set wraps up almost everything else ... there's more than enough here for any fans to happily lose themselves in. Though along coming in at the tail end of psychedelia they presented a convincing amalgamation of that sound with progressive rock on their debut. To their credit they didn't rest on their laurels, turning in an effective country rock opus with their second album. Being both a link back to the sweaty all-nighters of the mods and a glance forward to the rough and ready pub rock of the mid-70s, Mighty Baby excelled for a brief but highly creative time".
