ReviewsIncluded in Magnet's "20 Best Albums of 2000" - "Another luminous batch of dead-letter lyrics from Woody Guthrie turn up in the Wilco/Billy Bragg mailbag....reading better late than never...", 4 stars out of 5 - "...Proves the equivalent of its parent release....showing grace...as they transform both the Dylanesque 'Feed Of Man' and the best song The Carter Family never cut, 'Blood On The Lamb' into Summerteeth outtakes...", "...Not only a great history lesson in what might have been, but also pure pop pleasure in any time and place.", 4 stars out of 5 - "...Blasts the verbal buckshot....bringing us closest to Guthrie's inner world....what really matters here are the songs themselves...", "...Bragg, Wilco and Guthrie are 3 principled artists sharing sharp criticisms about the worker's plight and some honest stories of love...clearly taking a turn from pure folk toward a harder edge...", 7 out of 10 - "...Bragg and Wilco have delivered modest, elegantly simple renditions of Woody Guthrie's lyrics, humanizing history yet again...", "A shameless retread of an inspired idea, but so what?...this collective seems to have countless fresh rock-folk hybrids to showcase Woody Guthrie's music lyrics..." - Rating: B+, "...The emotion flows as true as the music....VOLUME 2 sounds nothing like Guthrie - and exactly right."
