“An album that is beautiful, gently funky, and deeply, deeply sad - against all odds, McDonald has taken musical elements that have little in common with the blues and used them to draw out the blues' deepest essence. There is not a single weak track on this album. It's an unusually moving and haunting document from one of the unsung heroes of American (and, oddly enough, Jamaican) roots music.” - Rick Anderson, All Music
