Industry Reviews
7 - Flawed Yet Worthy - ...Lauderdale...has no knack for the seediness or fatalism that always gave L.A. country rock its edge....his talent is for well-wrought self deprecation...for elevating sensitive-guy schtick to the level of art... and for essaying soul, rock, and country moves with equal aplomb...
Spin (11/01/1995)
...Between the chiming guitars and from-the-gut vocals you can hear traces of everyone from Cream to Van Morrison to Al Green. It took Lauderdale to make eclecticism this seamless. - Rating: B+
