"Jädrar, vad roligt det är när man upptäcker något nytt, som har de där ingredienserna som gör att det låter precis som man vill. Välkommen i mitt finrum Doug Collins!"

- Torbjörn Berlin / berlin Calling -

"Det här är en förträfflig modern countryplatta som jag kommer återkomma till många gånger under våren."

- Micheles Kindh / Blaskan -

"Doug Collins & The Receptionists lirar traditionell country och blandar ibland upp den med lite pop. Det låter ungefär som det gjorde på 60- och 70-talen, vilket i min bok var countrymusikens bästa era. På den tiden var plattorna omkring 30 minuter långa. Det är 'Too Late At Night' också."

- Robert Ryrttman / Zero Magazine -

"Minnesota’s most delightful americana band return with their 1st new album in 4 years, this new collection is decidedly more country that the last and is destined to become a modern classic. Evoking equal parts Bob Wills, Hank Williams and Merle Haggard, the band delivers original country tunes with wry humor and a rare accessibility that has helped them win over fans across the midwest."

- Kenneth Bremer / Blue Desert -

"Doug Collins' been likened to Nick Lowe in his more country meets pub rock moments, while other references have included Jason & The Scorchers and The Beat Farmers, any and all of which should be an incentive to make an evening of it."

- Mike Davies / Fatea Magazine -

"Doug Collins is back and The Receptionists are still in tow. In 2019 I said “heartbreakers and lovemakers for romantics of all generations' about their 'Good Sad New' album and meant it, and now 3 years on I’m pleased to say they are continuing in that beautiful and maudlin fashion; but the songs have a new sharper and more thoughtful edge to them."

- Alan Harrison / The Rocking Magpie -

"In this new 10 cut collection Doug Collins & The Receptionists play with gusto and it’s recorded pristinely. It’s quite an enjoyable set of retro style polished up glittering music. A little late in arriving but well worth the listen."

- John Apice / Americana Highways -

"4 years after the wonderful album ‘Good Sad News’ we are now welcoming another hit record from the Twin Cities band Doug Collins & The Receptionists. It never becomes‘Too Late At Night’ when listening to all these beautiful melodies and songs, whether presented in an uptempo version or as heartbreaking country ballads. It's a real must have album for true music lovers."

- Valére Sampermans / Rootstime -
