Peter and Chris Lorin Rowan signed with Asylum Records for their second outing, this time as
the Rowans.
Peter injects a bit more substance into the material, although it follows the same folk and country-rock leanings of its predecessor. Once again, Chris and Lorin offer a collection of sincere, tuneful, albeit slight songs, while
Peter delivers three of the album's best cuts, including "Beggar in Bluejeans," "Thunder on the Mountain," and the near-classic "Midnight, Moonlight" (also released that same year as part of the great bluegrass project
Old & in the Way and a few years later on his solo debut). ~ Brett Hartenbach
