Entertainment Reviews:
Spin - p.96
4 stars out of 5 -- "[T]he main attraction remains his bristling, zigzag guitar licks, which still astound nearly 40 years on."Entertainment Weekly - p.69
"[He] consistently imbues his compositions with lyrics and melodies that shimmer with humor and humanism..." -- Grade: A-Uncut - p.102
4 stars out of 5 -- "[H]e sounds more like a loner -- intense, precise, impervious to fashion -- than ever."Down Beat - p.74
3 stars out of 5 -- "The album's strongest moments are, as usual for Thompson, about as good as rock music gets."Dirty Linen - p.51
"The album builds to a climax with two amazing rousing songs....There are full novels lurking in the narratives Thompson spins in just a few minutes."No Depression - p.95
"It's an unflinching, relentless performance through the barbed-wire guitar finale....As for the bittersweet fatalism of the breath-stopping 'Take Care The Road You Choose', it serves to remind that, for all the things Thompson does so well, nobody does this sort of balladry better."Product Info
