"Bob Lind returns with another collection of thought provoking songs that spring from his mature perspective, offering a mixed palette of questioning, reminiscence and regret. Since the 60s, Lind has fascinated fans with fine imagery and poetic wordplay, and his ability to fill songs with lyrics that evoke moods and emotions ... Most impressively, the album's overall production, playing and ordering allows the melodic songs to wash over you, proving that Bob Lind is one artist who has maintained and improved his artistry with age. Like a fine vintage Bordeaux, there are flavours and nuances here to be savoured".

"His lyrics are beautiful, celebratory, cerebral, poignant, reflective, rueful, thought-proving and wistful. Songs about love, love lost, returning heroes and the sands of time running dry, sit side-by-side with a cover Tom Paxton's Bottle Of Wine. Often, the lyrics are also cinematic, vivid and rich in imagery, as Bob Lind unmistakable voice switches between musical genres. Bob Lind it seems, is just as comfortable singing folk and folk-rock as he is country, jazz or pop rock".
