Entertainment Reviews:

Down Beat - 8/95, p.55
5 Stars - Excellent - "...this haunting collection...has the power to catch you by the throat. Using his high, keening voice and refined modal guitar picking, James infuses 'rags' and blues with an inner-directed melancholy that perfectly fits his lyrics on death, desolation, devilry and the Depression..."
Mojo (Publisher) - 4/01, p.44
"...Enigmatic and fascinating..."
