Press Reviews
MUSICIAN: "...a haunting, spare set of recollections that recall Robert
Johnson in their stark intensity and Hank Williams in their country simplicity."
ACOUSTIC GUITAR: "Vince Bell is not your typical Texas
singer-songwriter. His music is more art song than folk song, more
Jacques Brel than Woody Guthrie...He's easier to compare to David Crosby
or Joni Mitchell than to Willie or Waylon."
MUSIC REVIEW QUARTERLY "...an excellent piece of roots music that
easily equals the best works of those other noted names [Lyle, Nanci,
Townes, Guy ]. In fact, Vince Bell takes a considerable jump on each of
those because he is more willing to experiment with sound...The subtle
but intriguing mixture of sounds wouldn't matter if it weren't attaching
itself to solid songs, and these are solid....long on staying power."
JIM MUSSER, Writer for Iowa City Press-Citizen, No Depression,
CDNOW.com "Bell's music, while hauntingly beautiful, nevertheless
creates an inescapable tension with his audience; there is an
ever-present fear of falling which makes the listener lean into Vince's
songs, to urge them on while holding one's breath. This is truly a
magical thing--it is show business, and it is dangerous."
