"At some point in his long life in the Mississippi hill country, Leo Bud Welch learned how to shake a song down and expose the strong, raw feeling underlying it".

"That track's spare backing stands in sharp contrast to the rest of the album, much of which employs a grungy, high-energy approach (built around Welch's own distorted guitar lines) that is quite effective on songs such as 'Girl in the Holler' and 'I Don't Know Her Name', with their echoes of Hill Country trance blues ... But, on some tracks, the wall of sound put up by Jimbo Mathus and his cohorts threatens to drown out Welch's vocals, powerful though they may be ... Welch's sophomore effort should rank among the year's best albums of traditional blues".

"Vurdering: Good" - "How many elder blues masters are left these days? ... 82 year old Leo "Bud" Welch from Sabougla, MI, is the real deal and proves it on his second album, the deep blues follow-up to his gospel debut".
