    If you're looking for more of Mad World-type bleakness, you'll be disapointed. Otherwise, this is great cd that anyone who considers themselves a Cat Stevens or Dylan fan should seek out. There's a reason he's so popular across the Atlantic.

  1. It's pleasant, but hardly earth-shattering, not helped by a shortfall of notable tunes.... There's just nothing here that grabs you in the same way that Mad World did.
  2. The album fully delivers on the crackling promise of "Mad World" with an accomplished set of hard-won folk-rock.
  3. Gracious and redemptive, it is a rapt, quiescent masterwork.
