Sophie And Peter Johnson - Happy Together (WEA)

Already receiving a fair amount of radio airplay, this sweet, inevitably catchy, single has some rather sparkling moments. One of them being the gentle tempo and impressively arranged instrumentation. The chorus by comparison, is a bit watery, but mixed together, the brother and sister team seem to have a notable debut on their hands. 3/5 (Anna Martin, No 1, August 23, 1986)

The resurrection of the boy/girl formula. Where Dollar were lampooned as wet, very tacky and occasionally quite kitsch, these two are touted as 'enigmatic'. The winsome sister and bro collaborate on an airy-fairy coo, the very epitome of niceness. In close proximity to neutral on the love/hate scale. (Lesley O'Toole, Record Mirror, August 16, 1986)
