    Black Letter Days evokes an early-Seventies Stones bootleg -- a little bit country, a little bit rock & roll - minus the danger.

    Basically, it wants to be the Stones but ends up a bit Tom Petty. [Sep 2002, p.103]

    Arguably, some prudent pruning might've made the album great instead of good, but even the album's uneven moments are still pretty enjoyable.
