Beautifully tattered, wasted male folk threading Americana, Country and Blues into a whiskey-toned, rugged pattern of mellow ache and conditional optimism. Like blending Tom Waits and Joe Cocker, Arthur Godfrey captures a sound that is simultaneously raw and abrasive as well as warm, sweet and full-bodied. His album is a refreshing break from the overproduced, shiny, lacquered trends in popular music- he reminds us that there is often more to be said through simple, exposed songs with the shirt tail hanging out.

Superb performance; exceptional writing

Amazingly catching voice... rugged, almost painful, but totally enthralling. Concept album, if ever there was one! Not the kind of album that "cheers" you up, but it draws you into the created world. This is the kind of music you will never hear on the radio... unfortunately. The voice is a meld of Springsteen, Dylan, Armstrong and Charles. I would very highly recommended anyone who likes blues or folk to give it an honest listen.
