Entertainment Reviews:
Down Beat - 3/96, p.55
5 Stars - Excellent - "...exciting....tightfisted rhythms and sinewy guitar licks...support Arnold's wailing harp....Arnold is as adept at singing the blues as he is playing them."
JazzTimes - 3/96, p.118
"Chicago blues harpist, a major figure from the '50s, is back with another no-nonsense blues offering in the great tradition of Sonny Boy Williamson....Arnold delivers catchy originals...with slick verve and a dose of humor..."
Living Blues - 1-2/96, pp.59-60
"...one of the most encouraging events the blues world has seen in years..."
