"In many ways, Three Day Week can be seen as a kind of companion piece to Stanley and Wiggs' dreamily downbeat English Weather comp, drawing its sustenance from a marginally later time-frame, but still chronicling a Britain coshed by circumstance into grim forbearance. But where English Weather gently draws the curtains against the gloom, Three Day Week captures a mood of - not defiance, exactly, more a kind of cavalier stoicism. We're boned anyway, so why not have as reasonable a time as possible among the ruins?".

"More broadly, a great compilation is a form of legerdemain; the themes have always been there but showing what's hidden reveals new perspectives. Indeed, now the underbelly represented by Three Day Week has been dragged from the coal scuttle, it makes perfect sense. The pop music of the day had to have reflected the mood of the times - though this mood was at odds with the clappy, happy, stampy world pop was meant to be. As a result, the adventurous Three Day Week is a pleasure. The standard narratives for the pop music of the period are fine and whatever their validity they are now shown to be stale. Unlike the history which has spurred it into existence, this is a breath of fresh air".
