Editorial Reviews ...Bibb's music defies genre: bluesy without being maudlin, gospel-y without preaching... NAPRA Review (11/01/2001)
...His most personal and fully realized release to date....balancing traditionalism and originality... Living Blues (01/01/2002)
3 stars out of 5 - ...Bibb smolders with such old-time voodoo-Christian religion he can make angels scary....He chimes acoustic guitar like a funeral bell and sings of heaven as if Robert Johnson's hellhound was on his tail... Q (08/01/2001)
