“Lynda Mandolyn of Tiger Bomb has a single out on her own. "Billet Doux" which means Love Letters in French, is a sparkling pop tune. There is some French charm in the whole production. There is a video for the song which is charming and again seems to have some classy French Vibe to it. Sophisticated pop, oh la la!”

"I have no idea who Lynda Mandolyn is, but her EP reminds me of one of the oldest singles I own, Nancy Sinatra's 'Like I Do'/ 'To Know Him Is To Love Him'. The title track of I Love How You Love Me, is the reversed version of Nancy's B-side. It has the mood and sweet stickiness of the track that of course has been recorded by many artists. The atmosphere may be caught perfectly, the sound is totally different. It's more like Laura Palmer is singing the song, just before the 'Twin Peaks' mystery starts. There is a certain darkness in the sound and in the way I Love How You Love Me seems to drag its feet. And then hear that dark guitar in the background in the whispered part. A mighty thunderstorm is gathering over Lynda's head. The two songs that follow, 'Little Dreamer' and 'Billet Doux', remain in this segment of early 60s pop girl song, with a dark sheen over them, giving them a mystique that is David Lynch worthy. We have to live on without the cinematic master and Lynda Mandolyn is leading the way."

“Mandolyn’s ethereal “Little Dreamer” is her take on the Some Birthday Girls track of the same name, and thought it was originally released a few years back by the Los Angeles group, the track evokes a lush, daydreaming sound of blissful ’60s retro-pop. It’s a haunting, smoky rendition with its sugar-sweet melodies and love-drunk lyrics intact”
