One of These Days Press Clips
"A rootsy affair that touches on blues, Tex-Mex, and jazz, former
Dynatones’ guitarist Dunn delivers wonderfully tailored tunes that
manage to highlight his ultra-hip, yet ultra-musical guitar playing. His
bluesy, organic phrasing deftly mixes in slick modal flavorings (from
Santana to Robben Ford), and his ability to outline a tangy, twisting
chord progression—on the album’s title track for instance—without
going into chromatic la-la land is a real treat, as are his velvety octave
licks. Dunn leans on spanky, mildly overdriven single-coil tones for the
most part, but the album’s last three cuts feature Dunn’s
formidable acoustic chops. Good tunes and killer playing. What’s
not to like."
- Darrin Fox, Guitar Player Magazine
The Hound of Music Press Clips
"This band grooves. L. Dunn’s guitar playing is a step beyond…Great
key and sax solos. Enjoyable blues well produced, arranged and played."
- Steve Raible, Blues To-Do’s (Seattle, WA)
"Larry Dunn’s Rhythm Sheiks are a riveting roadhouse band and
the groups’ new CD is outstanding."
- Lee Hildebrand, Express (Oakland, CA)
"This CD contains some smooth R&B…also invokes The Band
at its dirge-like best."
- C.S., Leo Magazine (Louisville, KY)
"I liked it (Hound of Music) so much, I couldn’t stop playing
it."
- John Lee Hooker, Blues Legend
"Band leader Larry Dunn’s songwriting and arranging is masterful
and if justice is done you’ll be hearing more from the ultra-talented
Rhythm Sheiks."
- Joseph Jordan, Blues Access (San Francisco, CA)
Migration of the Groove Press Clips
"Led by the supremely talented Larry Dunn this Bay Area band’s
new CD has blues, jump swing and rock-n-roll covered like a live-wired
electric blanked."
- Southland Blues Magazine (Los Angeles, CA)
"Larry Dunn is a solid lead vocalist. ‘Born to Jump’
and ‘Avalon’ really cook, ‘Here to Stay’ and ‘My
Brand of the Blues’ show a more laid back side. There’s a
lot of exciting music on this record!"
- Rick Hall, Oregon’s Cascade Blues Association
"The lyrics will appeal to anyone who knows a little about hard living
and bad habits and the rock solid grooves are a sure invitation to dance."
- Don Adair, Spokesman Review (Spokane, WA)
"The CD represents a wide spectrum of the blues genre including jazzy
jump, Texas boogie and rockin' country blues…enough infectious high
energy to move even the toughest audience."
- Leslie Ann Knight, Monday Morning Blues DJ, Radio Station KKUP (Cupertino,
CA)
