Reception

The Irish Times found the album "a statement of continued intent as well as a towering achievement" that provided a successful overview of Moore's work for both new and long-time listeners.[4] The Guardian deemed it "both entertainment and history lesson", and "a still unique mix of politics, humour and lyricism".[5] For the ABC it was "a fine way to revisit his work",[6] and for No Depression it was a "wonderful collection of music from a true legend both inside and outside folk music".[7]
