    This is beautiful but get monotonous and reminds me a lot of like the soundtrack to Inside Llewyn Davis. Its ok but I got bored. I like his original albums better

    This is all alright. Being nothing new or of his own one does get kind of bored, being that we've heard this sound and these songs before. It's all alright.

    He brings an easy empathy to these songs. [Sep 2014, p.96]

    A fantastic set of songs approached with a reverence that is never stifling, and one in which fans of either act will find plenty to love.

    More than anything, it’s refreshing to hear an artist with Bird’s skill set bring to life a set of songs that deserve an audience far beyond the small cult that has already discovered them.
