90 - Uncut
It's a mind-boggling assemblage of swingin' 50s "space-bop" like "Soft Talk" and "Super Blonde," processional chants such as "Rocket #9" and "Journey To Saturn." and electronic keyboard voyages like "The Perfect Man" and "Disco 2021," an edited taster of the monumental "Disco 3000."
87 - Pitchfork

Singles provides the first real opportunity for an audience to hear how Sun Ra became Sun Ra.
