May 20, 201180Cantrell'a sprightly tribute LP is beautifully rendered, her bell-pure voice and the chops of Chris Scruggs, Fats Kaplin and Lambchop's Mark Nevers lending old songs a new, urban sophistication. [May 2011, p.92]

May 18, 201160Cantrell's voice exudes greater purity than Wells's and she has some tricks up her sleeve, one being an original that gives the album its title, a song that namechecks Wells and other country icons such as Maybelle Carter and Martha Carson. [Jun 2011, p.105]
