While the album is creative in every way, it's not very appealing or enjoyable overall. The style is meant only for a certain crowd of listeners. Kay's intentions are good, with rootsy, socially conscious concerns expressed on the album. The heart is growing harder, 'til it just no longer cares. After years of remaining deep in the rock 'n' roll age, Kay ventured out into his own world.
Nothing makes the album stand out.
There is not a song that makes the album or a style that sets it off from other albums. There is no allure or attractiveness to it. Throughout the album, the acoustic guitar takes over, and sounds of the harmonica can also be heard. While the instruments add to the sound, actually listening for sound alone is not advisable. Focusing on the lyrics is the best way to listen to it, Kay admitted in an interview with the Black Bird Group.
