"all Blues and all amazing and fresh and authentic and energetic – feature vocalist Jesse Garland, who is, can I say it – three words: amazing, amazing, and then, amazing", Jeanie Straub, Colorado Music Buzz

"young talent .... a notable amount of fire .... Kray .... his icy tone and phrasing recall one of his favorites, Albert Collins.  vocalist Jesse Garland sings on most of the cuts ....two horn players shine. As a result, Kray and company make more than just a splash on this disc; they also make a few waves." From Westword, July 22, 2009
