Another great review! Please see below. Love the references to Alabama soul blues influences on my music what a complement - my next CD needs to be recorded in the Alabama recording capital of the soul world - Muscle Shoals, Alabama! ...The music herein is sweet, soulful, and reflective, often reminding me of a female version of fellow Alabamans Eddie Hinton and Dan Penn. There is a blues feel throughout, but overall this is more of a Southern soul album with jazz and country nuances. Asherson’s electric piano is an essential component and he also con- tributes keyboard bass; his nimble playing often reminded me of another Alabama soul music legend, Spooner Oldham. Bond’s mellifluous vocals are comparable to Bonnie Raitt and Maria Muldaur while her spry, intricate guitar playing is similar to Raitt’s. The title track, a ballad concerned with the vicissitudes of love, best captures the prevailing mood of the album. The most upbeat songs are the mid-tempo “You’re The Kind Of Trouble” and “I Like It Like That” while “Steady Rolling Man” has a turn of the 20th century honky-tonk feel. A heartfelt album of love songs... Blues Music Magazine #5 – Thomas J. Cullen III
