Never twice

"Think Mose Allison, Jon Hendricks, Georgie Fame, Ray Charles and Van Morrison to get a handle on Nick. With the ghost of Cab Calloway hovering in the distance ... It's all pretty lo fi and for me, suffers a tad for those production values. But I still say this guy is uber cool, very talented and has it going on, and I still say this album should be heard. Nick Waterhouse must be heard. With the wind behind him, he could well cross over from underground to big mainstream success. But maybe he likes things on the down-low, just as they are?".

"For the most part, this is a refinement of Waterhouse's stylist approach. All of the songs are solidly written and played, and the enjoyment of them is dependent on the listener's valuing of expertise and skill over creativity. Vocally, Waterhouse remains as spirited as he is studious, crooning and belting at all the appropriate moments with a little bit of swagger".
