"'Modesty Forbids' reflects the dying art of fine pop songwriting and craftsmanship. Add in immaculate musicianship and a main-man who is still humbled by his fellow peers the album title becomes more understandable.Graham is another national treasure and this latest album one to be treasured".

"Solo peak for 10cc man: When not solely keeping the live 10cc flame burning, Graham Gouldman has found time to make his fifth solo album ... [It] is full of what Gouldman does best - lovingly crafted songs, concise choruses and economical wordplay. The instrumental "Russian Doll" adds a Crimson-like quality. This album does for 10cc what Jeff Lynne has done recently for ELO's legacy. In fact, "Waited All My Life For You" is like ELOcc; and that's quite a thing".
