Millie Jackson: E.S.P. (Extra Sexual Persuasion) (Spring)
Vivien Goldman, NME, 4 February 1984

The woman handles her own business, with a whip I've no doubt, and you know that she not some record company creep personally selected the white satin corset she sports on the back sleeve, complete with silver spike heels and grey silk stockings.
