"Though Johnson has been relatively quiet for the past two decades, Bloodshot is sure to spark a comeback. His deep, crackling voice is the perfect accompaniment to his detail-laden, folksy lyrics. There's an undercurrent of honesty that flows throughout Johnson's music, lyrics and voice, making Bloodshot an album that one can listen to over and over again."
Rob Bellinger, The Tufts Daily

"Making this record was very different from my past studio ordeals � my 1978 A&M record took over a year and bled me dry. Like a lot of my colleagues, I don't care about being in 'show business' anymore. Twenty years ago major labels were the thing. It was a big deal to get signed. People kissed your ass and hung on for the ride, but when the ride looked grim, people evaporated. Poof! Hello? My real friends, the people I worked with on this CD, went through the same experience. Their modesty would astound you and endear them to you. Happily, they're just people who respect the work and each other. They really are spiritual philanthropists, and I am grateful that, after so long, they let me in again."

"These tracks were done pretty much live. I don't think we did more than two takes of anything. It has a nice edge and reflects my feelings and sensibilities as I age. If anyone is interested, I'll keep making songs and recordings.
Otherwise, I'll keep making songs and recordings."
