"Levon Helm is a legend. His is the voice we associate with timeless tracks by the Band. And when he had a run-in with cancer a while back we thought we might lose that inimitably laid-back drumming and his distinctive singing. Happily, Helm recovered and he's since made some well received solo music. Here he returns with a pack of friends and collaborators. Helm has a wonderful behind-the-beat drumming style and a well-worn voice—scuffed, familiar and snug-fitting as an old shoe" (John Adamian, "CD Shorts," New Haven Advocate, 7/9/09, p. 40).
