    Not as muddy as one might have hoped, then, but this was definitely a revisit worth making. [July 2008, p.96]

    'Scare Easy,' the single, and 'Bootleg Flyer,' reminiscent of Petty's classic 'American Girl,' are the standouts on this collection of rough and ragged, feel-good country-rock. [July 2008, p.107]

    Great fusion of classic Heartbreakers' rock with a taste of Petty's Florida homeland. This country-infused record is a lot of fun, my onlyGreat fusion of classic Heartbreakers' rock with a taste of Petty's Florida homeland. This country-infused record is a lot of fun, my only complaint would be that the album has a few too many filler tracks, it would be a tighter album if they cut it down to maybe 12 tracks. My favourite tracks are "Scare Easy" "The Wrong Thing To Do" "Bootleg Flyer" and "Lover Of The Bayou". Full Review »

    Very country, very good. Shady Grove is one of the better songs I've heard in a long while.
