"North meets South on the first collaboration between Canadian blues/roots master Colin Linden (Blackie and the Rodeo Kings) and roots rock stalwart Luther Dickinson (North Mississippi Allstars) ... In places sedate and always refined, Amour takes country-lounge to an elevated and appreciated level".

"On Amour, Colin Linden (of Blackie & The Rodeo Kings) and Luther Dickinson (from North Mississippi Allstars) offer a collaborative paean to romantic love that is not entirely sentimental. Even on such an otherwise earnest effort, there is an inherent danger that might come across as campy, but the two guitarists/vocalists demonstrate an abiding loyalty to their blues and country roots that grounds this music".

"Amour could easily be subtitled "Love Americana Style," as they draw upon vintage love songs from blues, R&B, country and folk ... What follows is a focus on guest contemporary vocalists (with one exception) delivering heartfelt recastings of classic love songs. Nevertheless, with Linden and Dickinson at the helm, there are plenty of hot guitar licks to spice things up ... Linden and Dickinson deliver a wide range of stylistic approaches to the vintage material ... Amour illustrates the creative payoff that results when you give players like Colin Linden and Luther Dickinson the freedom to explore the roots music that provided them with their initial inspiration to become music makers".
