Who else here has got the bollocks to stand up on this stage, on their own, with their own tunes and their own guitar and play it from the soul? NME
The album was recorded in London and produced by Ashcroft and longtime collaborator Chris Potter. It marks a reunion with Wil Malone, who worked with Ashcroft on the string arrangements on the seminal albums by The Verve A Northern Soul and Urban Hymns.
