John J gave it a9:
Magnificent, an album to fall in (and out) of love by.
Jeanie gave it a10:
Heartbreaking good. Ryan Adams at his absolute best.
Liz K gave it a9:
Have recently discovered Adams as an artist, and the more i listen the moe i am impressed by his song writing ability. This album reached into your heart and soul and rocks it! - brilliant.
Zach L. gave it a9:
It may not be as strong as "Heartbreaker" or some of his work with Whiskeytown, but to say this album is bad is just plain stupid. There's a reason why it made number 6 on the top ten list of ALOT of critics. (Check out the Best of 2001 to see what I mean.)
anshuman s gave it a 9:
this is a classic...it really is..good simple music can be so cool...i would have never thought.. a must but for everyone ..
Olly gave it a 10:
Just bought this CD yesterday and after a few listens I have to say I love it. Somewhere between Bob Dylan, Springsteen and Counting Crows. I lay on the floor of my messy room listening to it as I drank beers off my guitar case.
Bryan W. gave it a 7:
ryan tries too hard to be neil young, bob dylan, mick jagger, et al. all at the same time. not that he cares what others think (which is good in a way) but this album just doesn't have the punch, the emotion, or the lyrics of anything he did on "heartbreaker" or just about everything he did with whiskeytown. that said, this is still a really good disc, it's just disappointing given his track record. that's life, ryan.
