A review, posted at iTunes: "Aside from the obvious Loudon influences there are some standout gems that speak well of this artist's soul; the playful "I Can't Wait (To Do a Tracheotomy)," the homage to his father in "Donald," and the wry wit of the title track. But for me the one song that makes me glad I was alive to hear is the sweet poignancy of the song "Sigh". From the soft eloquence of the wordplay to the silky sax, this song does it for me."
