"(The)songwriting takes on a fresh approach
(and) takes twists and turns with the lyrics that are thought provoking.
Tanner has an excellent ability to create images and characters.....they
paint pictures, little scenes from everyday life that are rich for
interpretation. The songs are genuine and sincere (and) spring so clearly
from the mind and experience of the songwriter that in (a) sense, there can
be no truer blues, not for Tanner. I like Mississippi Slim's slidework....raw,
forceful and aggressive. I listened, I liked what I heard....great lyrics
and excellent guitar." "Easy-going, smart blues duo doing their
thing with a sly sense of humor from the far edges of the music business.
Inspirational verses: "Hey headshrinker, analyze this song," and" "I've got
my timing and my lines down, just tryin' to get a good review." "I was really impressed with Gary's
album.....impressive singing and lyrics" "Gary Rex Tanner's Feel The Heat won me
immediately. I really appreciate the fresh original material, wonderful
delivery, cleverly composed lyrics and general feel. Some wonderfully
understated piano arrangement cited to some fella in a bar are also
teasingly great." "Gary Rex Tanner is an immediate hit with
our audience." "...engaging but unpretentious...written
largely in a wryly humorous vein...(Tanner) executes his tunes with grace
and aplomb." "Gary Rex Tanner and Mississippi Slim are a
breath of fresh air and an oasis in a dessert of overdecibled technopop".
"...I just love it. Great guitar work."
"...full of surprises....obviously someone
with things to say and a unique way of saying them! Keep making great music
and blessing us with your view of the world at large...." " I like the CD. The songs, the playing,
everything." "....really a great album. Gary Rex Tanner
is not frightened to put his own interpretation on blues music. Mississippi
Slim's slide work is also very tasty." "...the CD gives a fresh presentation to the
traditional blues style". "I really like Gary Rex Tanner's CD. I can
tell that his songs are really from the heart." "We like it!" "GRT is great!....refreshingly retro. In a
world full of teenagers playing the blues Gary Rex Tanner should be looked
upon as an icon in the art form." "It's a great piece of work..." '...this is a good CD!!!" "The sound is tremendous...even for a studio
recording. It's hard to put in words, it just has an intangible appeal".
"Very tasty stuff" "It's really good. We're playing it a lot!
Great Guitar work. I'd like to invite GRT and Mississippi Slim to be on my
show anytime". "Tanner's CD is a welcome relief" "Good stuff" "It's great...thanks for a great album." "Gary Rex Tanner's songwriting spins
beautiful bittersweet tunes that are a joy to listen to and causes smiles to
start growin'. Responses from listeners have been very positive. People who
fancy themselves slide guitar fans should definitly get this CD." "Great album" "Very nice indeed...keep recording great CDs
and I'll keep playing them. No exaggeration...I really like (this album)".
"I like the CD very much. My program can be
heard all over Europe. I will give (the album) lot's of air play. "I really like this disc. These songs have a
very earthy quality and great mass appeal potential. With more exposure I
can see many of (these) songs being recorded by other artists." "...beautiful CD...my compliments". "I like it very much...It's on our play
list". "...real 'earthy' blues...a pleasure to play
it". "Gary writes songs from the heart. As a big
fan of great lyrics, Gary's songs keep me on the edge of my seat." "Feel The Heat is alive and well at WXLV"
" 'Feel The Heat' gets better with each spin
in the CD machine. The first time through 'Waitin' For The Call' jumped out
and begged for airplay. Now I'm following up with 'Marguerita' and 'Taste Of
My Love'. Gary's singing and (Slim's) playing reminds me of those summer
afternoons that are too hot to do anything but find some shade, a cool drink
and someone to take your clothes off with." "We're digging the CD a whole bunch"! "I really love it! (Tanner's) sense of humor
knocks me out and I dig the guitar work. It seems as though the blues are in
good hands." "Gary Rex Tanner may be the worst guitar
player I have ever worked with." |
