De dochter van folk-singer/songwriter Terry was in Nederland de laatste jaren succesvol in het americana-circuit door haar samenwerking met Ad Vanderveen en Iain Matthews in More Than A Song. In diezelfde jaren maakte ze de prachtige platen "Lost & Found" en "Paradise Hotel". Van vlak ervoor (2000) stamt het ook erg sterke "Hard Times In Babylon". "It's sad, dark, full of a late night lonesome that is tough to chart though she does it so beautifully it's almost not believable. What makes it work is the sheer, limpid, unadorned manner in which Gilkyson presents her songs. She can really sing, but her voice doesn't need to carry drama and tension because her songs, so tautly and expertly crafted, naturally bring it right out of her.", schrijft Thom Jurek op allmusic.com. Deze live-opname stamt uit 2000 en bevat de nodige "Babylon"-songs. Jurek: "It's a chilling, arresting performance that ranks not only among the greatest in her career, but among the very best in the voluminous 'Live from Austin, TX' series."
