Recorded at Muscle Shoals Sound Studio in Alabama, the album sold over 250,000 copies in Europe and Australia. Critics praised its raw, soulful sound, with tracks like the title song Closer to the Truth showcasing White’s poetic lyrics about survival and truth-seeking. Fans on platforms like Amazon and Discogs highlight its distinctive bayou feel, with one noting the vinyl version reveals details like clear bass and great drums not as noticeable on CD or streaming.

White, known for hits like Polk Salad Annie and Rainy Night in Georgia, brings his harmonica and guitar prowess to this record, evoking the swampy, atmospheric vibe he’s celebrated for. If you’re into his unique style, this album’s a solid showcase of his craft.
