Reception
The Allmusic review by Rick Anderson awarded the album 3 stars, stating, "Ralph Towner's a difficult case. The snoozy noodlings of his former band Oregon can be downright stupefying, but his solo work is often, though not always, quite a bit more interesting. Open Letter walks both sides of the line, but succeeds more often than it fails.[2]

Personnel
gollark: Presumably Mystcraft or some compatibility mod.
gollark: Accessing table keys or, well, basically any other table operation, does *not* need that.
gollark: That is to *define* a table.
gollark: The `.` thing only works on tables, so `myst_book` has to be a table.
gollark: We know `books[i].myst_book.destination` is (probably) a string, as `monitor.write` and the `..` operator take strings.
