AllMusic[2]

The Globe and Mail wrote that "McShann transcends the usual cliches of the music with a style that is subtle, controlled and elegant, yet he manages to retain the appropriate emotional edge."[3]

AllMusic's Scott Yanow noted: "As usual, McShann drenches the songs he interprets with the blues, while always swinging; his basslines are always a joy."[2]

One thought on “Cannabaceae

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
