3 stars (out of 5) - "...Eerily translucent voice and guitar entwine, mastering the art of subtle embellishment while hopping invisibly between rhythmic chugs and single-note showers.", "...picks his strings attentively to achieve a warped, folksy sound that's as familiar and comforting as the crackle of a home hearth fire...", "...Unadorned, Masterly, Convincing Folk-Blues...", "...Phelps serves up heaping portions of gritty warmth and tangy/twangy. He's a self-contained, flesh-and-blood music machine, and an important new voice in the slide guitar world." - Rating: A-
