"Dave Gross stands up in this first album as a young man with a lot of capacities, abilities. Most evident is his enthousiastic approach. He treats the old blues-schemes in such a way, they open new horizons to the listeners. His guitar playing is often surprising, without any doubt. As a whole this album is worth listening to and never startst to get boring!"
Makes You Wanna Quit Guitar Playing

"I have had the fortunate opportunity to share the stage with this young man on a few occasions, as recently as March 13, 2005. He is a self-taught, incredible player. However, he has one thing that most semi-pro and even professional players do not have - SOUL. If you love the blues then do not hesitate to get this cd. Even better check out his web site at www.davegrossband.com and see him live!"
You Only Get One Chance to Say " I had his first CD"

"I love the blues and I play the blues, but as you will hear on his CD, Dave Gross takes it up a notch. It is like getting in on your favorite player of today, back when he was just emerging. This CD is raw blues, it is not dubbed up. Like the old blues, the guitar player and maybe one or two other musicians had to make the songs they played "fat". Dave's fresh and creative guitar work ,his outstanding drummer (more reliable than an atomic clock) and bass player who pushes the groove makes this CD swing. Buy it, and play it loud. And if at all possible GO SEE HIM."
