"There is nothing to complain about here. Allchin delivers some great new songs and he and his band and guests are up to the task of making them all sound fresh, new and varied. He plays with an assortment of styles and is able to make each new cut sound as vibrant as the prior one. He's a helluva guitar player, a very good singer and he really has another winner here".

"The title "Prime Blues" not only refers to Allchin's love of the blues but also to his love of mathematics. His songs tell a story and his guitar technique and tone are perfect. This is Allchin's bluesiest effort to date and his most enjoyable".

"He comes out again, guns blazing, with 14 original tracks combining blues, rock, and Southern soul ... From the hard rocking "Enough is Enough," to the uber soulful "Summer Sunrise" he delivers across the board ... Prime Blues is hands down a must have album".

"Florida-native Jim Allchin delivers a mixed bag of blues, soul and rock on his latest effort. Allchin shines as a guitarist and wins us over with clever, entertaining lyrics, but his vocals often lack the grit and growl for singing the blues. Even so, Allchin's clean and crisp guitar solos provide several highlights on the album and offer up som jazzy blues"".
