I listen to blues of famous players and it doesn´t moves me. But, yeah, this music does! This music really moves me. You have a unusual sound, … really, a unusual sound. I love this kind of modern blues! You can count on me, if you like you can use what I said in your papers - I mean what I say. What you are doing is very good. You have a good beat, good arrangements, good horns, good musicians - everybody, it´s well done, the harp is great - what you want more ? Gentlemen, I’m really sorry that I only could listen to your music for a short time. But I tell you - what I heard was really excellent!

Wirklich eine CD, die sich positiv aus der Masse hervorhebt.” Detlev Hoegen, Crosscut Rec./Radio Bremen: “Gefällt mir ausgesprochen gut. Für unsere Breitengrade ungewohnt kalifornisch; sprich laid back, virtuos und perfekt im Klang."
