"With Tryin' To Get To You, their thirty-first album in a prolific near fifty-year career, The Nighthawks provide testament to their own longevity and that of the blues genre itself ... This music sounds perfectly natural for these Nighthawks. In contrast to far too many of their contemporaries bent on proving their own authenticity, the legitimacy of these longstanding purveyors of the blues is beyond reproach".
"Harmonicat Mark Wenner founded the group in 1972 and still presides. The rest of the original band has moved on. Drummer Mark Stutso joined ten years ago, with recent additions being Paul Pisciotta on bass and Dan Hovey providing standout performances on guitar ... The mix of styles keps this album interesting ... This disc is remarkable for its consistency and the fact that Wenner has held onto his page in history for so long and so well".
