Lakeside's concept-album ploys often went not much further than their album covers, which depicted them in various movie-inspired guises. On the sleeve of <I>Untouchables</I>, they're Chicago-style gangsters, and they actually spin two or three tunes that tie in to the idea: "Raid" the dance floor, they order, but keep your "Alibi" straight and remember that you're "Untouchable." Fewer ballads and a couple of more dance tracks would more satisfyingly unbalance the album, but this 1982 disc nonetheless brings a thoroughly innocent, entertaining era back to life in your speakers. <I>--Rickey Wright</I>

5 out of 5 stars Turn The Music Up - The Funk Lives! - It's All The Way Live........2005-09-06

Lakeside has always kept the funk alive and on point - The Untouchables is certainly no exception. Over the years the word "party" and the phrase "have a good time" have evolved into something completely different than originated. Untouchables will give you a crash course into the real meaning of fun - party and funk while allowing you to experience a sincere good time. Lakeside's "Untouchables" is in step with the most basic creed of true pure funk - "funk not only moves it can remove dig" - Please Enjoy!!!

5 out of 5 stars Synth-Soaked Funk Beats.......2002-02-15

Another slammin' cd from one of Ohio's greatest self-contained funk bands! First rate funk is how I would summarize this album. From the bottom to the top, it's oozing with funk! "Raid" and "Turn the Music Up" are especially good. Take it from me, this album is definately "Untouchable"!

4 out of 5 stars Turn the music up!.......2000-09-20

I felt that this was one of Lakeside's final great albums. My favorite was the funky "Turn The Music Up". For a group that did not use horns in their music, I still felt that this was lakeside at their late peak. No, it does not sport their greatest hits, this was a strong and entertaining album.
