ReviewsRanked #14 in Mojo Magazine's "Best of 1999" - "...Her huge, melodious voice, stirring songs and fab settings make this album one to cherish....Steeped in roots but utterly contemporary.", 9 out of 10 - "...her great leap forward....Lynne embraces the soul-stoked song-symphony patented by the late Dusty Springfield....firing up the low-watt string illuminations and choreographing their own slow dances for dimply lit nouveau honky-tonks...", "...Drawing on all of her influences, from country to pop to jazz to southern soul, Lynne has created something that is all hers, superior in both scope and execution to the fine debut of her sister, Allison Moorer.", Included in Cmj's "Best of the Year" for 2000., "...Lynne returns with a set of orchestral outings, bluesy ballads, and silky, head-spinning dance music that catches her midway between pop and soul..." - Rating: B, Included in Rolling Stone's "Top 50 Albums of 2000"., "...brings a distinctive voice and great songwriting to her sixth release of her elliptical, hard luck journey....a stylistically diverse set that taps Curtis Mayfield's layered soul here and a Beatles-esque use of strings and horns there...", 3.5 stars out of 5 - "...a true original, synthesizing various, mostly Southern musical strains into a style that is one-of-a-kind....a genuine evocation of country....an album that lives up to the billing...the best voice in country music...and then some.", Ranked #15 in Spin's "Top 20 Albums of the Year 2000".
