"Rawls is an eloquent songwriter of enormous distinction and, again, with this release, his writing underscores much of the album with its inherent lyrical strength and melodic power ... There's absolutely nothing to criticise here, an album that's pretty near-impossible not to like".

"Waiting For The Train is a beautifully conceived album. It's thoroughly modern and delivered with taste and style. It's smooth, tight and in the pocket throughout, giving Johnny and his beautiful pipes plenty of space to deliver his message ... it's definitely up your alley if you love modern soul with an old-school feel".

"Across eight Catfood albums since 2005, Johnny Rawls' singing has displayed sincere, easeful emotional engagement with intelligent lyrics from one song after another written with his trusty bassist, Bob Trenchard. And the streak continues ... Never flagging in spirit, Trenchard and the other ace musicians again incorporate elements of Southern soul, Texas blues and classic popsoul into their infectious group sound".
