Who's Gonna Go Your Crooked Mile?
Who's Gonna Go Your Crooked Mile? is a compilation album by American singer-songwriter Peter Case, released in 2004. It includes three previously unreleased songs.
Reception
Writing for Allmusic, music critic Mark Deming wrote "…if you want a potent reminder of just how good a songwriter Case is, and how well he can make his material work in the studio, this album offers the evidence in spades."[1] Russell Hall of No Depression magazine reviewed the album and wrote "Case rarely comes off as strident; few singers are better than he at conveying a yearning, scruffy romanticism. Moreover, songs such as the rockabilly throwaway “Coulda Shoulda Woulda” show that sometimes Case is concerned with nothing more than having a good time."[2]
