Critical reception
Dave Kirby of the Boulder Weekly said: "What becomes obvious is that, for a guy who has mastered the fiendish intricacies of multi-voiced fingerstyle guitar, the center of the universe is still melody."[1]
Kelly Tasker of Grateful Web reviewed the album and had this to say: "This is Bundy's most diverse and complex effort to date, and he accomplishes it all with finesse and a playful spirit that shines through on every track."[2]
