Rolling Stone - p.80
4 stars out of 5 -- "Helm struts his slippery shell-game groove on 'Jed' and works it deftly throughout....He digs deepest here with his voice, which veers between soulful stoicism and boozy yowl."
Uncut
4 stars out of 5 -- "[T]he moods and influences tumble breezily over one another. The opener, a cover of Grateful Dead's 'Tennessee Jed' swings joyously..."
Dirty Linen - p.54
"[O]n ELECTRIC DIRT, his voice is full-bodied, vibrant, and exuberant -- fully comparable to his days with the Band."
Billboard (p.28) - "It's driven by Helm's warm, amazingly rich moonshine vocals and decorated with bluesy guitar sprinkles, angelic violins and lovely harmonies..."
Record Collector (magazine) - p.84
4 stars out of 5 -- "It's the rustic and rambunctious Helm vocal, a cornerstone of The Band's sound, that provides these songs with their charm and personality."
