"The album closed the book on the Electric Banana, but not before some truly interesting and sometimes not far from brilliant music was made. As usual, the Grapefruit label has done an amazing job with the sound and packaging, helping to make the collection something of an answered prayer for Pretties fans".

"The bottom line is that 'The Complete De Wolfe Sessions' contains some legendary recordings, many of which had great commercial possibilities had they been available to the record buying public as evidenced by the new three CD box set on Cherry Red's Grapefruit Records imprint, the first time the group's complete repertoire has been available in one place at one time ... This unique set will appeal to fans of The Pretty Things, 1960's psychedelic rock and 1970's hard rock alike and comes most highly recommended".

"I have to admit I was thrilled when I heard this collection was going to be released. These recordings have dripped out here and there, sometimes on compilations like the Rubble LPs, sometimes a pressing of one of the albums. But this is the first time they've been corralled together and apart from one or two dips on the later LPs, this is practically wall to wall greatness. Good sleeve notes too, with contributions from the band and a thorough write up from David Wells about each albums' history. You have probably heard some of this music if you were watching UK telly in the 60s, 70s and 80s. But if you're a Pretty Things fan, or just a buff of 60s and 70s rock music, you owe it to yourself to hear the lot".
