Sing Brother Sing almost equals the psychedelic cohesiveness and insouciant air of the
Edgar Broughton Band's debut album, but, even without doing so, it still stands as their second strongest release.
All the songs on Sing Brother Sing wallow in a hippie-ish, kick-backed experimental blues-rock style,
extenuated to perfection by Broughton's resonant grumble and vocal staunchness, and surrounded
by chem lab mixtures of guitar and bass. The group's peculiar instrumental outputs give odd tracks
such as "There's No Vibrations but Wait," "Momma's Reward," and the two parts of "Psychopath"
progressive rock-type tendencies with a homemade wit, which would be the band's most daunting
characteristic outside of Edgar Broughton's singing. Although the Captain Beefheart and Frank Zappa
comparisons are unavoidable, the rest of Sing Brother Sing's facets and odd instrumental
avenues emit a distinctness that remains the whole album through...(AllMusic)
