Critical reception

[edit]

Country Standard Time called the album "a beautiful, delicate recording," writing that "at its best, this CD shows a great band's instrumental luster and virtuosity."[3] Rolling Stone wrote: "Music this subtle and self-effacing is rare in any category; Union Station shun both the hot-licks showboating of conventional bluegrass and the soft-rock suburbanization of contemporary country."[4]
