Cradle to the grave

"Although there's little doubt this is first and foremost a pop album constructed almost entirely out of tight three- to four-minute tunes, what Squeeze celebrate is classic pop aesthetics, not sound (...) When applied to such sturdy songs, these grace notes make Cradle to the Grave feel nothing less than celebratory, an affirmation of Difford and Tilbrook's special chemistry as songwriters and bandleaders".

"With its best songs vividly referencing the 70s South London landscape of Difford and Tilbrook's youth, FTCTTG is frequently nostalgic, yet it's largely upbeat and mostly eminently radio-friendly. The balmy, country-flavoured Happy Days and stomping, soul-tinged titular song are surely destined to become live favourites, while affecting teenage rites of passage tales such as Honeytrap and the brilliant, porn-mag-related Haywire eloquently demonstrate why Difford still hits the spots lesser lyricists can't reach".
