Production

Co-produced by Russ Titelman, the album employed many well-known session musicians.[9]

Critical reception

The Washington Post wrote that "even when he updates the Elmore James classic 'It Hurts Me Too' with an arrangement that weds a funk beat to a wash of electronics, Mo' makes the transition from analog to digital age seem smooth, if not exactly welcome."[2] The Chicago Tribune thought that the "acoustic, adult-contemporary blues style becomes more sophisticated with every album."[10] OC Weekly deemed the album "a disappointment," calling it "more James Taylor than Skip James."[11] The Record wrote that "this Los Angeles musician's urban folk-blues stew remains disarmingly soothing."[12]
