"The great accomplishment of Crown lies in its unique collection of songs and especially sounds. Eric Gales writes music that pulls in various styles and blends them in such a way that would handcuff other artists. Shifting from metal-tinged blues into a rap-driven verse, delivering a capella intros, or his seamless use of eccentric guitar sounds are things that Gales can do that many other talented artists can't. On Crown, every song has the ability to stand on its own merit, and as a through-composed album it performs even better. It may be Gales' best effort to date".

"His masterful combination of feel and technique reaches frequent peaks, with rousing, Jimi Hendrix-inspired rocker Death Of Me and slow burner I Found Her showcasing his fluid, emotive playing at its best".

"Self-fascinated Eric Gales presumes to preside over blues America as monarch. It's not so fanciful. With personal demons vanquished, he is delivering on the promise shown over the decades since he was considered a teenage guitar prodigy ... With better-than-average material and production, Gales - skillfully, and with superb assurance - unleashes his trademark high intensity. But never before in the studio has the guitarist been this impressive without showiness".
