""Movin' On with Paul Ansells' Number Nine" encompasses the "Rockin', Smokin' Country Blues" sound that No. 9 are famous for, but pushes the musically boundaries even further. Alongside the self-penned tunes, they shamelessly rework classic material - which any sane musician would be afraid to tamper with- and give it the full No. 9 treatment. Their own originals will soon become classics in their own right, from slow, soulful ballads featuring Paul's unique vocal delivery; beautiful harmonies with new talent Imelda on two tracks; up tempo honky tonk and driving country rock with thumping bass from Mick Wigfall and oh-so perfect clear guitar from Malcom Chapman with Brian Nevill on drums, No 9's musical pedigree is complete" - Jerry Chatabox, Dec. '99 (from Hepcatrecords.com)"
