"Paul Geremia is one of the greatest bluesmen alive. His superb 12-string McTell style and earthy vocals are hard to label as anything but a stroke of genious. He also masters the delta slide guitar and the harmonica to perfection, he truely is the best blues has to offer. "Special Rider Blues", "Skin Game Blues", the titel track and "Good Liquor Gonna Carry Me Down", are but a few of the excelent trax on this wonderful album. If you're a fan of John Paul Hammond, Bonnie Raitt, Keb Mo, Alvin Youngblood, etc. you should switch off your computer immediately and RUN to your local cd-pusher for a shot of primo blues. But don't take my word for it! Find it, hear it, buy it, 'cause Paul Geremia's by far the real thing. - Enjoy!"
One of the best blues revivalists!

"This guy is amazing. He is a student of country blues, and an excellent musician on guitar and harp. I just saw him live at the 2001 Chicago Blues Fest and he tore it up. His originals sound like traditional tunes. He has a real feel for the old time stuff, a great fingerstyle player. If you like country blues, you'll dig this guy. Buy it."
