"He really does deserve the plaudits thrown his way over the last about 20 years for basically being the new modern blues guitar king. He does blues well but with a lot of variety added.

"A hard album to put into words. Beautiful ?? Atmospheric ?? Hypnotic ?? The sense of underlying darkness ?? Whatever it may be this is a brilliant album. Just keeps growing on me and gets better every time. Prog rock on a heavier scale." Reply
