"Quiet ballads this time, with stripped down production values that vaguely recall the Underground's more low-key stuff (the lengthy, nearly incoherent "Kicks") but are definitely in the 70's art rock mainstream ("Crazy Feeling," a relatively energetic and memorable pop song). Reed mostly just strums his guitar, the rhythm section thumps and bashes along unobtrusively, and the gimmicks are limited: a lot of slide guitar, a little piano, backwards percussion, and Reed's mannered and occasionally sloppy backup vocals. Thematically it's pretty much restricted to romance, unlike Reed's best records, and stylistically it's just as narrow: the big exception is the rambling, slow-dance pseudo-soul title track, complete with a slick R & B guitar part and some swaying female backup vocals. Nothing here matches the overblown pomp of Transformer or the avant garde mania of the Underground's records, but the songwriting is mostly solid and there's nothing really offensive - except possibly the wearying six-minute remake of "She's My Best Friend," which doesn't have half the spark of the original. Produced by Godfrey Diamond."
