Review: Dave Brown @ EvenTheStars.co.uk
“The crowd move into the aisles to dance and some head down the front for the final two songs of the main set Getting Away With It (All Messed Up) and Born Of Frustration as James seek to finish the night on a bang. The security are a little unsure of what to do but as there’s no danger of a stage invasion a la 1989 they try and keep the front free without being heavy-handed. People just want to be a bit closer, Tim lets the audience sing the chorus which they do with gusto and the whole Apollo is now on their feet, not to sit down again until they leave. Born Of Frustration’s ecstatic windswept moments are even more so with the choir and orchestra augmenting the band and the audience casting off any remaining inhibitions that might have reigned them in earlier in the evening.”

Review: Izzy Langhamer @ The Mancunion
“The last third of the show takes place with the audience entirely on our feet, swaying, singing, and hugging to songs like the heady ‘Born of Frustration’. At the end of a well-received encore, James finish with ‘Hymn From a Village’, the perfect jangly closer to an evening filled with elation and mad-cap energy. As hometown gigs go, you simply can’t get better.”

Review: Helen Millington @ RGM
“Booth never seems to age, and at 63 works the stage like he did 40 years ago, and equally strong are his vocals which cut through the huge ensemble perfectly. It wasn’t just the classics we we treated to, the band rolled out some new material, a track called ‘Love Make a Fool’, which will feature on their upcoming album ‘Be Opened by the Wonderful’.”
