Reception
The Allmusic review by Brian Olewnick awarded the album 3½ stars stating "For serious Mitchell fans, this is worth having for the highlights; newcomers might find an easier "in" with the slightly earlier and utterly wonderful Snurdy McGurdy and Her Dancin' Shoes on Nessa".[2]

gollark: It's really bizarre to not use tapes to store music, when music is basically the sort of data they are good at.
gollark: Or debug.
gollark: But it doesn't support potatOS.
gollark: If they ban the IRC end of it, automatically make new accounts.
gollark: Just make an IRC bridge bot.
