    It's not until the seventh song that voice and material converge satisfyingly. [Jul 2005, p.115]

    Laura Cantrell's crystal clear vocals are beautiful, reminiscent of Kitty Wells. This album's Big City meditations evoke traditional country, bluegrass, honky talk, and the shimmery melodies of 60's California country acts.… Expand

    Too slick and AOR for my liking. Try The Tremblin' Kind for a more gritty down to earth country album.
