Press Reviews "Uncle Carl is Brooklyn's answer to Dr. John." - The Night Guide "Best blues/jazz I've heard in quite a while." - Mud Hut Records "Apparently, Uncle Carl is that most cherished of American archetypes -- the lounge lizard gone to seed. Carl's dirty musings over the mercy voodoo jazz of his combo goes down just fine." - The Philadephia Weekly"The quintessential philosopher in the guise of a cool, streetwise alley cat." - tothebone.com "Near perfection." - earBuzz Reviews
