"You can't really go softer and gentler than this LP. Superb songs. Electric Guitars is a nostalgic reflexion on the Beatles: "We were songbirds, we were Greek Gods, We were singled out by fate, We were quoted out of context - it was great"."  Reply

"Each one of these 5 albums is great. Except each one of them has their own page on this website where you can give them the rating they deserve. So how about doing that instead of rating this redundant box set?"  Reply

"Her forth album following a fine list of great records. This record contains outstanding interpretations of Pancho & Lefty and You Never Can Tell. The other tracks ain't shabby either. A solid collection of songs."  Reply

"This is a fantastic album featuring the combined power of Susan Tedeschi and Derek Trucks' bands. Susan Tedeschi has one of the greatest voices in blues (or any genre, if you ask me) a powerful, beautiful voice that seems like a combination of the best aspects of the voices of Janis Joplin and Bo..."  [+]  Reply

"Denim and Leather is an anthem filled album. It's hard to say which tracks are the best but if I had to pick I'd say Princess of the Night, And the Bands Played On, and Denim and Leather. The whole album is worth a listen though."  Reply
