"Whilst one understands the financial logistics involved with larger bands it is most regrettable that we don't hear and see as many horn-driven bands now as in `the good old days'. But never mind, for 51 minutes we can put this disc on and think about how great it would be to see this ensemble play these tunes live. Highly recommended!".
"The majestic power of horn-fueled blues was preeminent on many early recordings as maestros such as Louis Armstrong or W.C. Handy largely defined the burgeoning genre (...) the trio of ace musicians collectively known as the Texas Horns carries on that tradition, and with this album they persuasively reclaim the blues form as their own ... While the album features some solid singing (...) the six instrumental tracks are equally strong ... This album celebrates the earthy throatiness of reeds and the beautiful blast of brass as valid and vibrant vehicles for articulating the blues".
