 "Revenge is not only sweet, but sometimes unashamedly funny as well: In their seventeen minute opening "quadrille", the six Jamaicans have quite impartially built in a disrespectful version of 'Rule Britannia'. ... Later on, there's also the 'Banana Boat Song' (under the title 'Day Oh'), 'Island In The Sun', the 'Rivers of Babylon' and - they stop at nothing - the 'Tennessee Waltz'. ... Featuring (lead-)violin and banjo, rumba-box and guitar, the partially quite aged Mento gentlemen (five of the six are over sixty) play the earthy, rural folk music of Jamaica, a close relation to the calypso of Trinidad. Music that gets rid of all bad moods, and really fits with sun and summer, rest and relaxation". (Disc)
