Here is more from the critics on Melvin Taylor...

"One of the most exhilarating blues guitarists to emerge in the past decade...[he} is more a blues innovator than a purist, mixing jazz chords and rock influences into his tapestry of electric blues."

Rolling Stone Magazine

"A volcanic guitarist...the sort of virtuosity that drags an audience into a world of risks and chances and excitement."

The New York Times

"Taylor's arsenal consists of blinding speed, a feverish wah-wah pedal, a range of tones that leaps from groans to squeals, and notes bent so dramatically that his guitar sounds like it's retching. Taylor succeeds because he's a virtuoso who pushes the limits of his own skills."

Living Blues Magazine

" dizzying speed, stunning!"
