"Balancing his time between the band, sessions and engagements with Eric Clapton, James Taylor and more recently, Chick Corea, Gadd describes the trio's output as "honest music", which most likely refers to the band's raw approach to the soulful material they play and the passionate way it's delivered. Through this, their third album, there's thankfully no change to this formula. It's a record again influenced by the music of New Orleans and the classic organ groups of the 60s and 70s".

"Saxofonisten Michael Blicher har endnu en gang skrevet en håndfuld smukke organiske melodier, der lyder af en anden verden og tid. Han har ånden fra rhythm'n'blues og souljazz med. Sammen med Dan Hemmer på orgel og verdensstjernen Steve Gadd er trioen noget nær det bedste bud på nutidig souljazz ... Blicher Hemmer Gadd har atter lavet en plade, der vil finde vej til pladespilleren, når der brug for fest i hverdagen. Iøvrigt er der sket lidt nyt. Paul Carrack synger på The first One to know. Pianisten Peter Rosendal, percussionisten Eddi Jarl og guitaristen Andreas Lund er diskrete sidemen på det vellykkede album".

"Get That Motor Runnin' is the trio's third album, and the soul, funk and a tinge of gospel is freshly revisited without losing any of the energy once exemplified by Ray Charles or James Brown ... Overall, it's a rollicking trip down memory lane and through the smoky corridors of souljazz that's increasingly a thing of the past. It's by no means a jaded journey, but one remembered with sweaty nuance to its bounce. Yes, it's a blast from the past, but garnished with a modernity that makes it less a retreat and more an advance".
