Reception[edit]

Joseph Carver of PopMatters gave this release a seven out of 10, writing that this is a "pitch-perfect" introduction to Griffin, but "if there is any flaw on this collection, it would be that it tends to overstay its welcome".^[1] Jeff McCord of Texas Monthly praised the backing band and Griffin's vocals, calling this set "breathtaking".^[2]
