All About Jazz | [4] |
On All About Jazz, Dan McClenaghan called it "A superior piano trio outing with bonus of Iggy Pop's cool contributions". [4] In the Colorado Springs Independent Bill Kopp wrote "The trio of Saft, bassist Steve Swallow and drummer Bobby Previte turns in some unexpectedly accessible (and not at all avant-garde) jazz. And when Pop joins them on “Don’t Lose Yourself," “Everyday" and the title track, he delivers a gravelly, wavering vocal that is more Leonard Cohen than Stooges. Because it may mystify jazz fans and Iggy acolytes in equal measure, an open mind is necessary when listening to Loneliness Road". [5]
