In the Asbury Park Press , Alex Biese wrote, "The album, recorded at the Jam Room Music Complex in Howell, is a lush, 10-track survey of the jammier side of American music, from the adventurous anthem "Wookie Kids" to the lush and tender ballad "Wondering" and the country-rock shimmer of "Emma Lynn". Half the album has the distinct, shining presence of Penque's New Riders bandmate Buddy Cage on pedal steel guitar." [1]
All songs written by Ronnie Penque except where noted.
