| | Chris Whitley & Jeff Lang |
 | | Whitley is a wraith like figure, fragile, cradling his beloved National Steel, alone on a huge stage, his hunched form shrouded in a cloud of cigarette smoke. |
 | | Jeff Lang says that "Chris Whitley's music had everything that an artist should aspire to: transcendence, raw honest beauty, bravery, passion, " and similar praise can confidently be assigned to Lang, that rarest of players who while capable of the most dazzling virtuosity, invariably brings only what's necessary to the party. |
 | | Whitley's vocal is breathtakingly soulful and the powerhouse rhythm section is again relentless. |
