"...This satisfying album, recorded
over 13 years by legendary Texas R&B/Blues Singer/Songwriter
Doyle Bramhall, (he drums too - an awesome combination)...If
you think he sounds like Stevie Ray, you've got it backwards
- he shaped Vaughan's vocal style."~USA Today
"As a writer, Doyle Bramhall was
instrumental in stretching the scope of modern blues through
his collaborating with Stevie Ray Vaughan - Note the supple
yet forward motion of Change It; known as one of Stevie
Ray's best numbers... Doyle wrote it and claims his share
here."
~Raygun
"...can sing blues and R&B
like a down home native... It's Bramhall's soulful, effortless
way with both period covers and his own trad-conscious
originals that's the radiant hub of the record..."
~Musician
"Texas blues are more easy going
than their Chicago and Delta cousins; They're more likely
to savor the good times than to muse on past suffering,
Mr. Bramhall follows the tradition, singing in a honey-covered
baritone with jovial ease. His drumming is crisp and straightforward..."
~New York Times
"Doyle's voice has the sharp snap
of passion, acceptance, and understanding, and it's lifted
by that driving sensuality that informs only the best soul-blues
testifying."
~Boston Phoenix
"Bramhall's voice deserves to
be compared not to Vaughan's singing but to his guitar
playing."
~Houston Press
"This guy brings a soulfulness
to the table that's all his own."
~Philadelphia Inquirer
"EXCELLENT."
~Guitar World
"Walking into the Austin Music
Hall while Bramhall & Co. were pumping "The House
is Rockin' " has to go down as one of the defining
moments of SXSW."
~Daily Texan
"Where so many blues pretenders
seem like carpetbaggers, Bramhall sounds like a Texan singing
Texas music, in a voice that is as individual as his heartbeat."
~Austin American Statesman
