Rik Emmett would very much like to be recognized for more than the guitar-hero pyrotechnics of his years with Canadian power trio Triumph, but doesn't mind being sucked back into the mold from time to time. The quality branching out begins, however, with a pair of fingerpicking instrumentals - "Lickity Bit" and "Transition" - and the swinging jazz-blues of "Woke Up This Morning

rik Emmett,does not disappoint. great riffs and lyrics. defetly recommend if your a fa. een a fan since early 80's.

The quality branching out begins, however, with a pair of fingerpicking instrumentals - "Lickity Bit" and "Transition" - and the swinging jazz-blues of "Woke Up This Morning. Of less interest is synthetic pap like "Dig a Little Deeper" and the ballady, gushily optimistic "Let Love Conquer All" and "Heaven In Your Heart.

Ipso Facto was the last Rik Emmett album to feature a band as writers, following albums would focus entirely on Rik himself, beginning with The Spiral Notebook three years later, in 1995.
