Classic Rock MagazineOct 23, 2013Rhythm & Blues is a proper double album: each disc is notionally themed though, as you'd rightly expect, there's plenty of each. [Oct 2013, p.88]

Aug 12, 2013Whether he’s singing about his mother’s advice or the eternal blues staple, woman trouble, Mr. Guy hits home.

Jul 29, 2013If this package can sometimes feel a little too pat, put the blame on producer Tom Hambridge, who also helmed Skin Deep and Living Proof and now has a track record of pushing Guy just enough to form a narrative but not enough to break him out of the box.
