I bought this as a gift for my sister. I already have it. It is an absolutely amazing album.

I first saw Jim Byrnes on "The Highlander"- his character owned a club and he sang from time to time. I fell in love with his voice and started buying his CDs...he has won the Juno Award for Blues Album of the Year three times, for That River in 1996 and House of Refuge on Black Hen Music in 2007, and for "Everywhere West" in 2011.[2] Byrnes was also honoured at the 2006 Maple Blues Awards, as Male Vocalist of the Year, and at the 2006 and 2009 Canadian Folk Music Awards. If you have not had the treat of hearing him sing, I urge you to do so!

Jim Byrnes has recorded several albums of his music over the years. These songs are not to be left out of the collection!

I was listening to him sing Of Whom Shall I Be Afraid on an episode of Sanctuary when I realized he might have other songs out there and when I looked I found him. He has a really good sound. You won't regret buying it.

Ce CD est tout simplement énorme ! Les chansons sont sublimes, le blues est génial. Je le recommande vraiment à tout bon connaisseur et même aux autres...

I love this man's voice, and once again I was pleased. I am not normally a big fan of gospel albums, but this one could make you believe in a higher power if you started out as a disbielver.From the first song to the last you are covered in a blanket of uplifting music. Jim Byrnes delivers once again!!!

I saw Jim Brynes perform all these numbers in the intimate environment of the Cap College theatre. It was a spell-binding evening. Jim manages to be both personable, sincere, soulful and deep all at once. And the wonderful artists who back him up on this album were present and in peak form. Zubot and Dawson, on fiddle and and slide quitar, are true professionals and recording artists in their own right (and fun to watch as their totally opposite personalities play off against each other). And the Sojourners are wonderful gospel/blues singers. They all meld together beautifuly. This is and will remain one of my favourite albums ever.

I've enjoyed Jim Byrnes' music since I was in my 20's and used to go listen to him perform live with his band in a little lounge called Puccini's, in Vancouver. I practically wore out my Jim Byrnes LP's back then. I heard his version of Stardust on the radio and tracked it down to this album. Along with some of his usual straight blues, it has a lot of bluesy gospel which suits his gravelly voice. Gospel isn't something that I normally listen to, but I do enjoy this album very much... and of course his version of Stardust is sublime.
