    It's much more daunting to continue making records that forge a new creative path or write songs that explore new territory. Strawberries does both of those things and proves that Robert Forster is no nostalgia act -- he's still creating records as intense, meaningful, and dangerous as anything he's done in the past.

    Take “Breakfast On The Train”, among the most involving songs this storied chronicler of the heart has ever penned. .... The other seven tracks on this self-contained album are no slouches either. [Jun 2025, p.32]
