"Back in the late 80's when I first plugged in Fleetwood Mac's video Tango In The Night I was really impressed with the guitarist. I knew it wasn't Lindsey, but who was this guy with that impressive style and appearance? Rick who? Never heard of him, but never mind, this guy could really play (and sing). It was obvious even Stevie and Christy were getting into those hot riffs and since then I looked forward to his putting out some solo albums. Pink & Black was refreshingly better than I ever expected with an excellent rocker Let's Get Some Work Done, a super well done remake of original Fleetwood Mac member Peter Green's bluesy/ rocksey tune I Loved Another Woman, the solefully great blues riff Living Without You and one of the best rock-out's I've heard in a long time Trouble In Trying Times. If the album contained only these four songs, it would be worth the money, but the rest of the album is good also. The one thing that could make this a five star, longer songs."

Five stars based on the three tracks I've heard on KKUP

"Defintely harder rocking/bluesier than anything he's done before, and no one has the CD in stock! Demand this one at your favorite music store, and forget all your remember about Fleetwood Mac and King of Hearts. This time he's playing for real."
