What the Critics Say

Guitarist/vocalist Rory Block's mix of traditional blues covers, originals, satirical and folk/country material was featured on this album mixing mid-'80s and early-'90s tracks. Her versions of Robert Wilkins' "No Way For Me To Get Along" and Rev. Gary Davis' "Sit Down On The Banks" were among the high points, as well as Block's "Dr. Make It Right" and "I Might Find A Way." For the most part, the songs were nicely performed and varied between upbeat and somber themes. Block's vocals were frequently outstanding and never less than convincing, while her playing was strong and steady. ~ Ron Wynn, All Music Guide
