Many so-called blues releases are actually filled with bluesy R&B, soul, pop, and rock. There is no such stylistic confusion in Sadie Mae from Nick Moss & the Flip Tops. The music is no-nonsense blues, played with spirit, drive, and swing. Most of the selections are concise, getting their message across and not overstaying their welcome. By varying tempos and moods plus including occasional instrumentals, the quintet performs enjoyable and memorable music, with an emphasis on cooking straight-ahead grooves. Lead voices are Nick Moss on guitar and vocals, harmonica player Gerry Hunot, and pianist Bob Welsh (doubling on organ), but the tight yet loose rhythm section is not to be overlooked either. This is a fun set, well worthy of several listens.

Karen's sweet voice plus Richard's clean arrangements added up to superstar success. Here are their biggest hits and most cherished songs: Top of the World; Please Mr. Postman; Yesterday Once More; Goodbye to Love; Only Yesterday; Bless the Beasts and Children; I Believe You; This Masquerade , and four more chosen by Richard himself.
