Reviews:
"A burst of energy fueled by blues, folk and rock 'n' roll, beams the moonlight of Western music to a wider horizon and a wider highway unhindered by obstacles."—Recent Music Heroes 

"Very pleasant album where the sounds make synergy, create landscapes of yesteryear."A3XN

"The tracks share a rocking vibe that references classic films and their composers.  'Nosferatu Boogie' is a highlight, but the best turn of phrase is 'Fig Newton of the Imagination.'"—A Closer Listen
