“…powerful collection of covers..all the recordings are rich and punchy, with gutsy guitar, full bass, focused vocals, and some great drum acoustics..”
Jez Ford Australian HiFi
“…Joe Camilleri leads from the front with his timeless voice and, on moments like the cover of Coltrane’s Lonnie’s Lament, some smooth saxophone playing…Vika Bull’s kickarse version of That’s A Pretty Good Love a highlight of a record that features many good times, and offers Black Sorrows fans another hit of that vintage sound.” themusic.com.au
” …the Black Sorrows’ cover of Hank Williams’ I’m So Lonesome I Could Cry seems as though Williams had written the tune especially for Joe Camilleri, some 66 years after the fact. … it’s this contrast across the record that most appeals. Clearly a passion project, Chapter 47 is a bucket of fun and memories, wrapped in that vintage Black Sorrows sound.” themusic.com.au
