Ranked #79 in Rolling Stone's "100 Greatest Albums of the 80s" Survey., 4 out of 5 stars - "...If you like your beer with a shot and your guitars strictly pedal steel, stick this in your '67 Chevy.", "...The rock edge and attitude that he brought to the table marked him out from the country crowd straight away....a landmark debut.", "Earle’s eye for detail and easy turn-of-phrase gives his music a filmic, nigh-on-heroic quality, key factors in understanding the relentless Boss parallels to come."
