    A concise set of soul-kissed tunes. [28 Oct 2011, p.73]

    The album is not just the best country has to offer (if the genre were modeled on his standard, its radio stations would be difficult to turn off), but more: it's the best that pop music has to offer, too.

    Vince's superb musicianship leaves the spotlight on these poignant songs.

    [It may not be] the most ambitious or thematically cohesive album, but Guitar Slinger makes up for its lack of focus with some truly inspired songwriting and performances.

    Guitar Slinger is not a classic album, but it has enough strong melodies to leave fans pleased.
  6. If mainstream and soulful's your country bag, you can do a lot worse than this.
