The album begins with the light, lilting "Your Love," and continues in a relaxed and generally romantic mood with songs such as the gentle "Still There for Me," the lovelorn "Rita," and the whimsical "I See Love," creating a breezy mood that stands in notable contrast to his '04 protest record, PEACE...BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND. Given Mo's deep, easy-going vocals and straightforward, nimble guitar playing, this disc has a charm that will appeal to both curious newcomers and longtime Mo fans.

Editorial Reviews
Blues informs all of Keb's material...and warmth of feeling, lyrical imagination, and a keen musical sense permeate everything on the disc.
