"ive been somewhat followin this guy ever since i saw him at the Birchmere years ago doin the Hot Rise/Red Knuckles thing. At that time, i deemed him one of the most talented young musicians i had ever seen. i give him credit for exploring his creative talents since, and while i havn't liked everything he has done, this CD IMO is the Tim Obrien i like, at his best. Nice variety, well recorded, there's not a bad cut on there."

If you enjoy good picking, singing or songwriting, you'll find something to like in this outing. Tim, if you read this: You need to get Mark Graham on another recording, its been a while..."
