4 stars out of 5 -- "There's a backwoods feel to much of his material and no shortage of sublime melodies....The lyrics to many of these songs sound like excerpts from evocative short stories.", "Packed with sardonic, self-effacing songs that recall the finest traditions of harmony-soaked West Coast folk-and-country-influenced rock'n'roll.", "A captivating listen....A skilled vocalist, Tillman has a tuneful baritone that guides and grounds the rootsy arrangements, keeping them from getting too indulgent."
