"The delightful, predominantly acoustic record reflects Pearl's maturity as a musician - subtle, understated, easygoing, and confident ... Pearl's poignant guitar expressionism, showing mastery of the fingerpicking, syncopated rhythms, and slide styles that define the country blues, hits all the sweet spots, but when he wants to he can rip down the barn with brash and nasty sliding ... An excellent album, imtimate and rich in feeling and depth of sound, just right in tone, yet, like all truly good blues, disarming in its starkness and sheer beauty".
