Phil Dirt's Reverb Central: Mike Vernon is GOD! OK, maybe not really, but he just keeps turning out incredibly good material. This release is chock full of splendid arranging and playing. His sidemen are extremely good as always. I still recall with great fondness the visits Mike made to The Pit ages ago. This is not classic surf sound, but there's surf along side Mike's signature guitar sounds. Note I said sounds. Mike is a long way from one dimensional, and the way he intermingles influences is noting short of brilliant.
