Vurderinger og anmeldelser

Could've been twenty minuets shorter. Would've liked to have seen more Mo Wax artists in it but I guess Lavelle annoyed them too much. Four out of five stars for sheer nostslgia value as I was such a huge fan of Mo Wax at the time.

It's a rush up to Psyence Fiction then the second half drags a little but Lavelle has an interesting and honest story to tell. Recommended

James lost touch with his roots
