AllMusic[3]
The Rolling Stone Record Guide[4]

Craig Lytle of AllMusic remarked, "The Brothers Johnson first earned national recognition as recording artists by singing the sensuously funky mid-tempo number "Is It Love That We're Missin'," featured on Quincy Jones' album Mellow Madness. The dynamic duo maintains that same groove on this, its debut release for A&M Records."[3]
