"When the boys disbanded I was heartbroken... The Aces are my favorite band. When I heard they were back, I just had to get this CD. To date, it is my favorite, particularly, Out of The Blue, Love's on the Way, Blue Room, One Love... basically the whole thing! When ever I feel bad, down, or whatever, I put this CD on and immediately things start looking up. Out of The Blue will definitely end up in the "feel good" hall of fame! Check out their web site (www.theaces.com) and go see them live if you get a chance!"

It's about time!

"Since the demise of this group in 1980 I would browse record shops in the US and in Europe weekly,and I always checked to see if there was ANYTHING on the Aces breakin'. To my delight I was caught by surprise when in 1998 I walked into a record shop and "Out of the Blue" there was a new release by a group who had provided the soundtrack for many moments in my life!All I can say is that this group has matured well,Russell Smith still is a first rate,kick-... songsmith,just listen to the title track as well as the touching lyrics that tell of the relationship between a young man,just out of his teens,and a woman stuck in an abusive relationship,great writing. The gutsey guitar and blusey piano and vocals on "The Blue Room" take you right to it. Russell still knows how to turn a vocal phrase. This group has only gotten better with age,just like a fine wine. Thanks guys!"
