"It's the first all-acoustic, solo effort for the native Bostonian ... this is a throwback effort with Bob alone with his six-string and delivering a performance with the feel of a home concert - warm, personal and unadorned with gimmickry - as he runs through a set of nine intimate originals that, as he states in the packaging, deliver "blues, love, blessings, challenges, stories and fun. No sugar added." ... Interesting, entertaining and thought-provoking, too, This Guitar and Tonight is (...) strongly recommended listen".
