Press Reviews `This is the worst kind of music by LEGO.. W.Stone used to be a force to be reconed with, the 1999 remix of 'After The Fact' (first recorded in 1994) stands out as being the exception.. its actually better than the original. As for the rest... MNE Magazine 1999 "..Live, W.Stone have a rare talent of turning eventhe most dubious album track into an entertaining experience by the way of hilarious drunken antics.. in crushed velvet Frock coats!..." CC Magazine (Translated) '..This motley gang of drunken ponces should have been quietlyput to sleep a long time ago.." John Peele
