Press Reviews ...a trove of fusionistic gems in Hidden Treasure....a talented up and comer...Chuck Berg/Jazz Times; ...as guitarist Les Sabler and his band played spirited contemporary jazz, ...it became one of those Florida postcard moments...Eric Snider/St. Petersburg Times; ...Sabler's playing is dynamic like John Scofield's, melodic like George Benson's and compelling like Jeff Beck's. But Sabler's sound is not just a conglomeration of his influences, his playing is clearly and refreshingly his own...Phil Matlock/MAC; ....extraordinary writing and playing talents....Les Sabler is one of the best guitarists to ever come out of Florida...Steve Huntington/WLOQ; ....a tremendous guitar/bass blend, over a letter-perfect background...Robert Spencer/allaboutjazz.com; ...an outstanding smooth jazz guitarist...Peter Bohi/Smoothvibes.com....a first class contemporary jazz artist...Ron Severini/Walt Disney World Co....Les' jazz guitar work is incredible...Troy Vanliere/CCM....a bright young talent with an old pro's touch...exquisite jazz-pop offering...an extremely promising artist with a shimmering guitar style that is sleek, chic and sexy...Steve Persall/Players Magazine
