Billboard (February 28, 1970):
Ray Charles' Tangerine label features the Raelets and benefits greatly by the addition of Ike a Tina Turner to the album. The Raelets star on "I Get Along All Right," plus Charles' "A Lover's Blues" and "One Hurt Deserves Another," while the Minit Records duo kick up a storm on "Dust My Broom," "Beauty Is Just Skin Deep" and two others. A quality album for the ABC-distributed label, offering both the soft and funky side of soul.
