Can't imagine this album not being very well received the majority of those who hear it whether they already are fans or in discovery mode.   While 'something for everyone' albums can be jarring,  this one showcases the versatility of an extremely talented group of musicians without sacrificing a cohesive listening experience.

As to the interview . . am continually impressed by and appreciative of Grace's openness in talking about the journey and the process that brought them to this point.
