| | The Corb Lund Band, Five Dollar Bill; Libby Kirkpatrick, Goodnight Venus |
 | | Corb and his energetic Lund Band and move like one huge, vivid, synchronized organism, often playing up-tempo western dancehall two-step, but churning in jazz, blues, and nuevoeurogypsy. |
 | | But as with Lund's album, the key reason that this edgy, urban album succeeds is the excellence of the arrangements and back-up band. |
 | | There are a number of styles on the album, including her own stripped down guitar folk and a countryish track, but much of the arranged material is derived from jazz and blues, looping steamy night music forward from mid-century clubs. |
