    Most of the album sounds immaculately produced, of course, the result of him basing his operations in Nashville with a group of seasoned musicians. But Dylan remains mostly anonymous throughout, letting others shine while he adds some occasionally poignant touches.

    Can evoke an Americana-tinged Warren Zevon, gruff but tender, with the best songs featuring Shelby Lynne's empathetic vocals. [Jul/Aug 2021, p.133]

There is a song or two that feel like leftovers from his last solo record ("Wrong End Of The Spear"), but a much more solid album overall than their previous one, "Glad All Over". The sound here is more like the country-rock/Americana sound from "Bringing Down The Horse" in places. "Who's That Man" is a highlight, just a no holds barred rocker with a killer hook. Good to have this band back in the saddle! Full Review »

Breach (2000) may be more distinctive, but something about this collection of songs is addictive. It's a diverse range of styles and encompasses the best aspects of previous records, while eliminating their drawbacks. From the wonderful and plaintive "Maybe Your Heart's Not In It No More" to the high voltage rocker "Who's That Man"; this album caught me by surprise, and it's a record many people are going to love!
