Reviews:
"With the help of master pianist Lincoln Mayorga, McBroom sings her own world-weary songs of love and experiences and well-chosen oldies like "You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'." AllMusic Review by William Ruhlmann
Direct-to-disc (D2D) recording refers to sound recording methods that record audio directly onto analog disc masters bypassing steps as master tapes, overdubs, and mix downs from multi-tracked masters. This approach avoids problems of analog recording tape such as tape hiss (high frequency noise).
