"This four-volume box set covering the period between 1967 and 1970 allows us to appreciate the sheer breadth of Auger's musical references. Two of these albums, Open (Polydor, 1967), and the double album Streetnoise (Polydor, 1969) feature Driscoll's powerful soul voice, while Definitely What! (Marmalade/Atco, 1968) and Befour (RCA, 1970) focus on the trio of Auger on Hammond, bassist Dave Ambrose and drummer Clive Thacker, plus a bevy of session horn and string players".

"During the late-1960s U.K. blues boom, former jazz purist Brian Auger gave free rein to his unusually fertile imagination and without artifice managed in his music to balance and combine blues, jazz, R&B, soul, soul-jazz, classical, gospel, pop and psychedelic rock. The Jimmy Smith-influenced organist and his band, at times joined by idiosyncratic singer Julie Driscoll, still sound fresh and interesting today".
