Reception [ edit ] The AllMusic review by Andrew Hamilton stated: "Disco jams and sweet ballads are featured on Peaches & Herb's return to the charts after a long absence... This new Peaches oozed sexuality, and her voice could raise the dead... The duo's specialty were ballads, and 'Four's a Traffic Jam' is a beauty, Fame's sweet falsetto and Greene's sexy phrasings are intoxicating."[2]
