Smithsonian Folkways provides a description: "The first recordings from an artist with a gift for interpreting original blues from Robert Johnson to Memphis Minnie to the Carter Family. Williams’s unmistakable sound is powerfully direct and filled with melancholy and passion."[2] A review in Montana State University Exponent calls it "The quintessential recording of Lucinda Williams ... An unbelievably soulful ... vocalist."[2]
