The Graham Weekly Album Review
one of the most eclectic CDs Knopfler has done, ranging from the familiar Dire Straits rock mode to some Western swing. The writing, musically, and particularly lyrically, is outstanding.

All Things If
2012 - brings together diverse musical and vocal styles: American folk, bluegrass, Irish and Scottish folk, rhythm and blues, progressive rock, country, blues, Western swing, and jazz. ... Knopfler resembles folk music itself: just when you think you can pigeon-hole him, he defies your expectations.

Ultimate Guitar
My advice is: if you love the Dire Straits/Mark Knopfler, then buy this CD, if you're not dead-keen, don't bother. 7.7/10
