"...Lavette has only gotten better over the years and has crafted a disc that will surely rate among the year's best..."
Mojo (Publisher) - p.100
3 stars out of 5 - "Her vocals, equal parts Tina Turner rock'n'soul holler and her own sedulous rasp, remain remarkably untarnished by age as she delivers Tennessee Williams-styled tales of broken hearts and promises."
