Follow-ups DON'T GET WEIRD ON ME, BABE (1991) and BAD VIBES (1993) were greeted with similar indifference. Indeed, it was not until his fourth album, LOVE (1995), that Cole was to receive anything approaching a positive critical response (the single "Like Lovers Do" was as charming as anything released that year). Looking back at these albums, you can see that Cole was really rather hard done by, as the first two solo sets in particular had things going for them."

Mostly, Cole sounds like he's slipping under the volcano (to borrow the title of Malcolm Lowery's novel about a day in the life of an alcoholic), and "Bad Vibes" abounds in references to excessive consumption. Just look at the cover photo..."

Ryko was both surprised and encouraged by the fact that Cole's fan base in the industry does not seem to have been eroded by the two-year wait for "Love Stories" and by his four-year absence from the stage. .."
