Content

The album includes the track "There Won't Be Another Now", a cover of a Merle Haggard song from his 1985 album Kern River . Chesnutt had recorded the song several years prior and had not intended for it to be an album, but chose to include it because the album had been released shortly after Haggard's death. [1]

Critical reception

Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic wrote "Throughout the album, Chesnutt keeps things simple, spare, and easy, keeping the focus on the song and the instrumental interplay — the very things that make for great country, of which this is proudly part of that long tradition." [2]
