Industry Reviews
4 1/2 stars out of 5 - [The songs] give delight with his understated, then-revolutionary singing style juxtaposed against his low-key, adequate piano and the quietly marvelous guitar of Scrapper Blackwell.
4 stars out of 5 -- An amazing 75 years on from their original release the haunting resonance of Carr's downbeat hymns to despair and desperation is still there for all to hear.
