"Here the collaboration and creativity of the early Phil COLLINS let them be famous among the new listeners of this particular genre... besides I like to make a special mention for the tasteful job at bass guitar, both on such splendid fretted and fretless bass guitar... Recommended as the first accessible work by BRAND X !!" - lor68-ProgArchives

"Unlike GENESIS, when Phil COLLINS left BRAND X the level and commitment to musical creativity and originality did not die. In fact I enjoy the post Phil COLLINS era BRAND X as much as that with him. "X-Communication" features the line-up of Percy Jones, John Goodsall and Frank Katz who blend rock, jazz, funk and fusion into this masterful recording. This powerful trio get into some pretty wild musical moments with heavy instrumental workouts and complex performances. "X-Communication" showcases the fretless bass action of Percy Jones with the complex rhythms of Frank Katz and the agile fingerings of john Goodsall. Without a question "X-Communication" is a magnificent album and is highly recommended to all fans of progressive rock." - loserboy-ProgArchives

"Excellent live album, though only two of the songs are from their studio albums ("Euthanasia Waltz" from 'Unorthodox Behaviour' and "Malaga Virgen" from 'Moroccan Roll') . The rest is new material, but is equally as good as the two tracks i just mentioned. Performances are faultless and sound quality is excellent. The drumming is split between Phil Collins and Kenwood Dennard, and both does a great job on this album. This is a very varied, but still even album and the compositions are all excellent! A burst of energy and fire!.." - Bj-1-ProgArchives

"BRAND X is, no doubt about it, one the most original and well-known British groups of the seventies jazz/rock fusion scene. Made of musicians that are technicians at their respective instruments and that are as inspired as talented. Absolut amazing from start to finish, this is a masterpiece of jazz-fusion. Again Phil Collins, is beyond super, not to mention the rest. About the music, all track are sounds very tight, well played. Nuclear Burn is simply outstanding and the rest of the tracks are all impressive in terms of dexterity/virtuosity. 5 stars, highly recommended, one of the best jazz albums ever." - Review by b_olariu-ProgArchives
