Funky beats, crazy but great, appreciate! - By: Mr. Hjh Brighton, 02 Aug 2004 
This album is an absaloute classic. not many people have yet heard of Luke Vibert or Wagoin Christ. But this really is an unfound gem. The way its all placed together is genius. Nearly everytime I put it on, someone nearly always comes over & asked me who this is.They think its fantastic. That it really is. Its quite hard to get hold of, but worth every penny.
Best tracks are paino playa hater & Tally ho
Cult Classic - By: C. Tustain, 25 Mar 2003 After having read various different reviews of one of Luke Vibert's previous records (having brought Musipal first). I thought I would give it a go & what came out of my speakers through the next hour or so completely changed my perspective of electronic music. It is at the same time downtempo, funky, jazzy, drum & bassy & downright head bopping stuff. If I was to put ten items into a time capsule destined for the year 3000 this would have to be one of them. It is an outrageously cool album, so fun & yet so rich!!!!! My one query of this album is that it is very tricky to get hold of if you don't order off amazon so come on all of you space age groovers get hold off this oncein a lifetime album. Nobody will ever produce an album quite like thisin the world take my word for it.
Luke Vibert at his best - By: , 30 May 2001 A worthy addition to fans of trip hop, breakbeat & Ninja Tune, Tally Ho! is a fun, sample oreintated album but THANKFULLY not as kitsch-y or cheesy as I had worryingly expected! Though similar stylistically this album is a lot better than his latest "Musipal" which suffers somewhat from the irritating cheesiness i've just been describing. The tracks are thick & and warm with atmosphere & layers of beats & samples, remaining fresh & distinctly original throughout, standout tracks surely being Shimmering Haze, Rendleshack & Piano Playa Hata. Oh & a great summer album!
'Designer Musing? Qui Moi?' - By: , 17 Jul 2000 Tally Ho! is the first full-length offering from Luke Vibert's funky alter-ego, coming after his departure from MoWax records & signing with mainstream giant Virgin. It's quite possibly his most sophisticated & fully realised work to date- the king of the laid back lounge groove offering here a beautifully crafted series of seemingly perfect tracks. Lush string samples ('Fly Swat','Memory Towel'), wholesome bass lines ('Crazy Disco Party') & bizzare antique synth samples throughout produce a sound that is always intricate, always interesting, yet totally relaxing. The sheen & finesse is gauged just right, too. Suffering less from his overblown ironies on such earlier works as 'Big Soup', 'Tally-Ho!' is a truly georgous record that can be played over & over again whilst letting you pick out jsut the right amount of new things each time. Make sure you have a very stylish lounge & a comfortable sofa.....
[Recommended Wine: A dry Pinot Noir (or maybe a Cabernet if you like your dance muzak a little fruitier)]
