Reviews4 stars out of 5 -- "Throughout, Sam mixes the clarity of BB KINg with the aggression of Buddy Guy and some of the loose funk of Albert King.", "...Sam's music represents the interaction of Memphis soul, gospel-influenced Detroit pop-soul, and the standard Mississippi-cum Chicago scheme....He is an expert song stylist; his voice is capable of changing form in mid-note--like B.B. King when he's really got it on...", 5 Stars - Excellent - "..his vibrant singing and rollicking boogie guitar made converts among rock fans...", 4.5 stars out of 5 -- "This monument of Chicago blues finds Sam grounding his thrillingly high singing and his cataclysmic guitar riffs in life experiences..."
