Quotes from Dan Engler Staff Reporter for Verde Valley News
"Musicians who take the solo road are like poker players.
With some, it shows they really don't have that good of a hand. It explains why they need other musicians around to make up tfor their shortcomings." "Rhodes offers up everything from a David Bromberg-styled showcase of guitar talent and humor on Long String of Blues to a haunting New Orleans night complete with steam rising from the ground on Born to Wander. Along the way he dishes up the kind of boogie-woogie on Riding that Rhythm that would make John Lee Hooker smile."
"And as is always the case with any music associated with Danny Rhodes, the guy is as skilled and gifted a guitarist as your will ever hear. Clapton, Bromber, even Stevie Ray Vaughan have nothing on this guy."
Quote from editor of "Flagstaff Live" Ryan Heinsius
"As undoubtedly one of the coolest cats to ever pick up a guitar in Arizona, the beret-sporting Louisianan's style sums up the life, culture and flavor of the American experience, one genre at a time." |
