    It grows on you, track by track. I am never disapointed in his work, wish there were more like him; but maybe then i wouldn't like him as much! It is nice to have someone so talented but still relatively unknown.

    While Hiatt sounds soulful as all get out (as per usual) on this set, the lingering mood is often downbeat and introspective.

    His richest and most consistently satisfying release since the late '80s.

    One of his most sedate, least jammy sets of songs ever. [5 Aug 2005, p.67]
