"Its baker's dozen of blues - originals and neat covers alike - reflects the high heat of a roomful of beaten skins, pulled and hammered wire, and sweat ... Kevin McKendree's production and piano and organ expertise were instrumental to the affair's completely soulful shimmer and shake ... Blues award-worthy".

"The voice isn't quite as smooth as the last time we heard from him (...) but that touch of fraying along the edges of his strong vocals only adds to the expressiveness, injects a bit of world weariness ... Everything emanates from Maher's splendid drumming. Lithe and swinging, his loping backbeat is jazz, blues and R&B all at the same time. It's a deep groove, just dripping with soul, yet firmly grounded in jazz and swing".

"This is "old school - we're getting down" stuff of the highest caliber through a mix of Maher and band member originals and vintage blues and jump blues tunes ... Among the many highlights are Brill's hard-edged vocals in "So Mean to Me," Kevin's barrelhouse piano in "Overdrive," the guitar picking in "I'm a Country Boy," the duel guitars referenced previously in "Sleepy Joe" and the epic Maher-sung "Two Years of Torture." This is blues and R&B done purely, emotionally, without any tricks or frills".
