All the promise that
Lonnie Brooks possessed was realized on this album, his finest and most consistent to date. The churning bayou groove of "Voodoo Daddy," and a soul-steeped "Watch What You Got," a bone-chilling remake of
Junior Parker's "In the Dark," rollicking covers of Tommy Tucker's "Alimony" and
Brooks' own "Figure Head," and the swaggering originals "You Know What My Body Needs" and "Watchdog" are among the set's many incendiary highlights. ~ Bill Dahl
