"Tommy Castro and the Painkillers get down on the type of muscular blues-rocking that's right at home in a roadhouse in Delbert McClinton's neighborhood, or in any living room around the world".

"It sounds like Wilson Pickett hopped down Delbert McClinton's throat and is clawing his way out. Left Coast singer/guitarist Tommy Castro masquerades as a bluesman, but that's pure, funky, old-school soul he's pumping out".

"Den flittige amerikanske spillemand kører lidt i tomgang med en 1970er-blueeyed-soul-bilradio-mellemvare. Når han synger sin "Blues All Around Me" og forskikrer, at "blues is driving me insane", så forbliver det uden en snert af drama og følelser, indlevelse og nødvendighed - snarere den velproducerede baggrundslyd til lørdagens køretur til indkøbscentret".
