    Hoodoo is spellbinding stuff, a new high mark in a delightful late-career renaissance. [Oct 2013, p.64]

    At 70, he's still as intense and dangerous as all hell. [Oct 2013, p.95]
  3. 80
    A true original, at his very best.

    At 69 White has no need to prove himself, so be grateful he feels the desire to do it anyway. [Oct 2013, p.99]

    Stylistically, White may be a one-trick alligator, but it's a damn pleasing one.

    The result: low-key mastery from a songwriting lifer. [Oct 2013, p.86]

    As appealing as the lived-in, swampy jams are, there's a laziness that drifts throughout Hoodoo, apparent in the sauntering rhythms and Tony Joe's mush-mouthed vocals.
