"..Among the thirteen tracks, one bonus and
twelve from the original mono vinyl, are a song with biblical reference,
a Broadway musical song, a song about bells and overall, the story of
the rootless wanderer. There are differences though in that in this CD,
Phillips has included some more obviously autobiographical references.
There is more of a southern U.S. sensibility
to this album and, although in this one Phillips doesn't give us such a
defiant loner, there is the overriding theme of an inability to connect
or make emotional commitments. And again, the voice and guitar are
almost always outstanding...."
