"... basically a huge hoop thrown in the approximate direction of the decade between 1962 and '72 - it's a testimony to thoughtful sequencing that Night Comes Down hangs together as well as it does. A chronological timeline over the course of 87 tracks on three CDs makes evolutionary sense, but genre hotspots (like the livid little proto-freakbeat cluster in the middle of Disc Two, courtesy of The Favourite Sons, The In Crowd and The Attraction) also help to maintain a tight focus".

"Compiled by the taste-masters at RPM, there are relatively few out and out duds and plenty that you will wonder quite how you've missed out on. Also as usual you get the lowdown on each artist via a comprehensive booklet and the whole thing is presented in a nice clamshell box. Anyone who likes a bit of 60s stuff would do well to check this out, along with Soul fans and people just interested in a good tune that was a little off the beaten track so to speak. Night Comes Down shows no signs of barrel scraping at all, offering a fresh and authentic trip through that turbulent decade by the way of some terrific tunes and sounds. Bravo!".
