"If there's a difference between this music and what they'd perfect on Sheet Music in 1974, it's in the absence of their pointed satiric wit, and a gentler melodic style more beholden to folk and pop-psych and lacking the splendid and shameless hooks that would reinforce the jokes on 10cc's albums. All that said, this is fine and imaginative pop with a psychedelic edge that's a treat for fans of '60s sounds and those who loved Godley & Creme's later work".

"With eleven previously unissued tracks of prime psych-era Kev & Lol, Frabjous Days is pretty much an essential purchase for any 10CC fan, before you get to the fact that Gouldman and Stewart also play on the Frabjoy And Runcible Spoon LP. More than that, this is an excellent collection of rarely heard psychedelia in its own right that deserves to be valued separately from its 10CC associations. This is a dynamite and highly enjoyable archive delve, one that reveals Godley & Creme's pop instincts and unique invention were already primed for innovation even at this early stage in their development. One to treasure".
