| Editorial Reviews:
Amazon.co.uk review The royalties must have seemed tempting at the time--hell, they still must--but it's got to feel galling to have written and recorded one of the genuinely great modern British soul songs, only to have it stolen from you and paraded in new bling from every speaker and screen. Anyone still under the impression that Mark Ronson and Amy Winehouse cooked up the all-conquering "Valerie" themselves would be well advised to delve back into The Zutons' small but stocky back catalogue for further gems and trinkets. Of course, it's not all perfect--the fact that The Zutons are so very overcooked is both their appeal and their Achilles heel. There is generally too much in the way of cod-poetic sub-Beautiful South storytelling and bad jokes, too much throttled yelping, far too much saxophone and too little subtlety. But when the surplus is skimmed aside, what's left can form an indie-soul revue to knock your novelty socks off. Examples on You Can Do Anything include the hammering vocal back-and-forth of "Harder And Harder", the colourful, anthemic "Always Right Behind You" bouncing off Slade's bell-bottoms and the riff-heavy Mott The Hoople-esque "Family Of Leeches". They're still essentially The Coral in lounge suits, Gomez without the Americana infatuation, but they'll be having the last laugh: on this evidence, they're a good few years away from the cruise ship circuit. --James Berry

Simply great August 31, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This is guitar music of the finest quality, if you like this band`s early stuff then you`ll love this. Absolutely brilliant.

I have always respected The Zutons for doing their own thing and not being Scenesters. And let's face it, how many modern Indie Guitar Bands feature a saxophone player?
'You Can Do Anything' - their third album, is a lot of fun that just like the last one, has a 70s retro sound to it, which includes a touch of Hard Rock, plus some Glam Rock on 'Always Right Behind You' that's like an update of Mud's 'Tiger Feet' for the 00s. Then combine it with some Ska like sax playing - which at times is also similar to the style of sax on Bowie's 'Pin Ups'. And to top it off, eccentric lyrics about modern day life.
My favourite tracks are: 'Dirty Rat' - which has a nice laid-back jazzy feel to it, 'What's Your Problem', 'Family Of Leeches' and 'Always Right Behind You'. This is another consistently good album from The Zutons.
Fantastic! July 4, 2008 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I totally agree with all the reviews already written here. Yes after playing the previous album to death on our holiday and thinking how can they match this........they bleedin well have!
It did take 2-3 proper listens, but now I'm hailing this the best album of the year so far (well until Kings of Leon bring their next CD out in Sept!!)
I keep trying to force myself away from it in the fear of overplaying it. And when I play other music, I can't wait to get The Zutons back in my ears again.
Every track is a winner. Even the weaker ones have some form of brilliance at some point in the track.
Very catchy, brilliant, I recommend it to all.
Grows on you more than you realise... June 27, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Got this album on the day it was released and was tempted to post a review then. I would have given it three stars. I'm glad I waited, because now, for me, this is worth the full five stars. It's a great, no nonsense album full of wonderfully catchy tunes wrapped round some brillianty written lyrics that you'll find yourself singing/humming without even realising you're doing it. I'm probably in a minority among Zutons fans, but 'You Can Do Anything' is now my favourite of their three albums. If you enjoyed either of the previous two albums from this band, you'll love this one too.
Great stuff.

A breath of fresh air at first, then they seemed to rest on their laurels, but after listening again I ALMOST like it as much as their older stuff. Good album
