From Billboard - August 10, 1959: Griffith – with his country charm – is a superb performer. He projects terrifically here as a humorist (with monologs on Shakespeare plays, etc.), and he intersperses the talk with song. He does a blues in a distinctive style, with true understanding; and these vocals are backed by smartly-tuned arrangements. Disk is paced like a show, with musical interludes spotted as changes of pace. Deserves strong exposure, both by dealers and jockeys.
