"This doesn't proceed in chronological order -- it opens in 1984, then hopscotches through the decades -- but that winds up emphasizing how Milton's records were consistent, always working from the same formula and containing the same punchy, slightly too clean production. Record by record, this could get a little wearying, but a cherry-picked compilation such as this is a testament to a giant in winter: it shows he had a mastery of the form, that he never lost his powerful skills and could always be counted on to entertain. As a portrait of the last third of his career, this compilation could hardly be better".

"Spanning 1984 to 2002, this disc represents a 'best of' of Little Milton's ʺkiller soul sides" and is comprised completely of non-original renditions of well-known songs to any fan of deep soul. Despite the synthesizers and slick production of the 1980s and '90s, these songs still stand the test of time. And in Little Milton's hands, these songs are more than just covers - he interprets the compositions and makes them uniquely his own ... All in all, this is a superb collection of southern soul from a soul-blues pioneer".
