Review Bruce Elder of Sydney Morning Herald said this album has "impressive acoustic version of " Wings of an Eagle", "Sweet, Sweet Love", " The Real Thing" and " Part Three into Paper Walls" and complimented the "remarkably intense and personal reading of Bob Dylan's ' It's All Over Now, Baby Blue' and a suitably chugging reading of Lennon-McCartney's ' I Am The Walrus. Elder concluded the review with: "He has been constantly touring for the past 11 years and the experience of the road produces versions of the songs that, in some instances, are little short of amazing.

Bob Dylan
Bob Dylan (legally Robert Dylan, born Robert Allen Zimmerman, May 24, 1941) is an American singer-songwriter. Often regarded as one of the greatest songwriters of all time, Dylan has been a major figure in popular culture during a career spanning more than 60 years. Much of his most celebrated work dates from the 1960s, when songs such as "Blowin' in the Wind" (1963) and " The Times They Are a-Changin' (1964) became anthems for the civil rights and antiwar movements.
