"Leveraging his BMA nominations for Soul Blues Artist of the Year and Soul Blues Album of the Year, veteran Philly soul man Frank Bey proves that he is certifiably "back in business" with All My Dues Are Paid, a vastly different but every bit as strong an album as its predecessor, Back in Business ... This writer has been privileged to see Frank Bey perform in two intimate venues over the past year and he stands with a precious few performers as one of the best I've ever seen and heard; not bad for a guy who is mostly sitting down when he sings".

"Bey is a powerful, soulful, blues singer. His voice, laden with emotion, yet able to subtlety adjust to different genres, is the heart and spirit of the album. His band works behind him, creating grand tableaus of sound from which Bey can launch, and land, his songs. And here a lot of the credit also goes to producer/guitarist Kid Andersen and co-producer Rick Estrin, who built-up tight arrangements that don't dominate Bey (not that anything really could), and also stand on their own".

"Bey has one of the greatest voices in the soul blues genre ... The artistry of Frank Bey is fully realized on this well produced album. This is an award winning effort from the emotive Frank Bey".

" ... the 73-year-old isn't far off from being in ideal vocal form. With producers Kid Andersen and Rick Estrin, and accompanists including esteemed bassist Jerry Jemmott all on his wavelength, Bey still possesses the keen purpose that's always driven his soul-blues".
