"It's a genuine pleasure to hear a singer of Chilton's quality let loose on a set of jazz standards such as 'Don't Let the Sun Catch You Crying' and 'All of You' and, while he's no Nina Simone he more than does justice to 'My Baby Just Cares For Me'. The other nice thing about these recordings is the opportunity to hear just what a good guitar player Chilton became, with many of these recordings being just him and his guitar".

"At just under 32 minutes, Songs from Robin Hood Lane is paced like a vintage vocal LP, and if it's a long way from rock & roll, this music speaks to a side of Alex Chilton's musical personality that clearly meant a great deal to him, and this is a low-key gem suitable for dancing and romancing".

"Songs from Robin Hood Lane feels like rediscovering a lost Chilton '80s album. For an artist who so often worked against himself, to allow him to sound exactly how he wanted to is a touching tribute, one initiates and aficionados alike will not want to miss".
