"My favorite album by a hidden gem of a band. Authentic and soulful, The Picketts honor their Bakersfield and rockabilly roots without being bound by their cliches. The music is anchored by a pounding snare drum, driving lead guitar (that borrows heavily from bluegrass and surf licks), and traditional country rhythm guitar, and is fronted alternately (or jointly) by Christy McWilson's warm, melodious, and vulnerable and Blackie's hillbilly-styled vocals."
