Transcription

Production

The album was produced by Chris Silogyi, Bruce Bromberg, and Alvin; Bromberg encouraged Alvin to add more of a bluesy sound to his guitar work.[6] Former Blaster Lee Allen played saxophone on some of the songs.[7][8] Alvin worked on some of the songs for King of California during the same period.[9] Syd Straw and Katy Moffatt contributed to the album.[10]

"Thirty Dollar Room" is about the touring life.[11] "Burning in Water, Drowning in Flame" takes its title from a Charles Bukowski poetry collection.[12]

Trouser Press wrote that Alvin's "comfortable within his narrow [vocal] range, letting his pithy songwriting carry the load."[15] The Chicago Reader noted that "even the least of Alvin’s material is redeemed by his robust energy and expansive delivery."[16] The Fort Worth Star-Telegram praised the "clear-headed meditations on lost romance."[14]

The Orlando Sentinel opined that "Alvin's rugged baritone is surprisingly effective on ballads."[7] The Los Angeles Times concluded that "Alvin's lyrics convey the heartache and longing you hear in the voices of great country singers like George Jones but rarely find in their material anymore."[17]

AllMusic's Denise Sullivan wrote that "Alvin's vision falters slightly, as none of the songs here are as instantly likable or classic as on previous outings."[13]
