Reviews"...gives fans inspired new versions of classics...plus a previously unreleased gem, the terrifying 'Sanitarium Blues'. The best introduction yet to this master craftsman's dour magic." - Rating: A, "...The singing is excellent throughout and mixed perfectly. The well-worn songs remind us of the magnificent talent we lost when he died....A FAR CRY is finely crafted...", "...First-rate songs, lyrically and melodically. Van Zandt has rarely sounded better - dry, weathered, intimate and convincing - and the playing is excellent...with an effortlessness and sensitivity hard to believe...", 7 out of 10 - "...completists will kvell, the (posthumous) production beats kareoke, and for novices, it's a fine meet-and-greet...offers new clues about why this oracular talent was so fitful and elusive...", 3 1/2 stars (out of 5) - "...For those not yet familiar with Van Zandt's work it is a fine place to start; for the rest of us, it's a powerful coda."
