 | | Under the pseudonymous group guise of Nanker Phelge, the band delivers a grooving jam on "2120 South Michigan Avenue." Named after the street address of Chess Records, the band blends organs, harmonica hums, blistering solos, warm thudding bass and tattering drums. |
 | | Nanker Phelge also gets the credit for "Empty Heart," a bounding rhythm and blues track that, along with "Grown Up Wrong," is arguably one of the best of the album's originals. |
 | | While there's no iconic Jagger/Richards-written songs on 12 X 5, it's an album bursting with energy and begging to be heard. |
