"...this album squeezed into my top 15 of last year precisely because of its dark passions and passing moods.  With its "optional side endings" and enigmatic titles, like its equivocations, its irreverence - it succeeds because it has rules all of its own." —Philip Watson  Wire Magazine, Feb 89

"...Hanrahan avoids the mold; his records constitute one of the more fruitful experiments of the '80s, an experiment that people will want to listen to for a long time. It's also music that sums up the intelligent side of our age, inquisitive, open minded, sensuous.  That it existed in the era of Reagan will be one of the mysteries to be debated by social historians."  —Peter Watrous, Musician October 1988
"...a compelling, sensuous, moody blend...Hanrahan's bluesy, longing brand of jazz is beautiful here... a haunting set of emotionally charged songs..."  —Dan Maryon, Option, September 1988

"One of the year's ten best records (1988)" —Michael Jarrett, Pulse

"One of the top ten records of 1988" —New York Times
