_______
Blues Revue, Chicago Sun-Times, and Boston Herald on "Satisfy You":
“Boston’s well-traveled Mystix boast vitae that include stints with Ben E. King, Jerry Lee Lewis, Duke Robillard, and just about every recording artist, due to the presence of guest Crispin Cioe, saxophonist for the Uptown Horns. Singer Jo Lilly, whose Eddie Hinton-esque vocal quality thrills, has for years fronted Duke & the Drivers as Sam Deluxe. Satisfy You (Mystic Eyes 322) offers a delightful range of styles, from Sam Cooke R&B (‘Can’t Say Enough’) to deep soul (‘Some Things About Love’) to Spanish Harlem balladry (‘A Little Bit of Soap’). The title track opens the disc on an eerie, minor-key note. Uptempo numbers are scarce, with the exception of the truck-driving country of “Change My Mind” and the roots-rocker ‘Ding Dong.’ " -Tom Hyslop - Blues Revue: The World''s Blues Magazine (Oct 1, 2006)
The Mystix, "Satisfy You" (Mystic Eyes) ***
“Summer wouldn''t be complete without a steaming musical gumbo of funky New Orleans-style R&B. But Dr. John, the gris-gris man with the swamped-out voice and roiling rhythms, is working as a "Mercernary" this year -- actually doing quite interesting renditions of Johnny Mercer classics. And various other Crescent City projects were either delayed by Katrina or accelerated to strike while our collective attention was focused there. Where''s a music fan to turn? How ''bout Boston and New York, of all places, where a loose-knit band of blues-rocking studio musicians called the Mystics is serving up a home roux of tunes that draw on recipes of the Fatman, the good doctor, the first family of funk, et al. Singer-songwriter Jo Lilly, a k a Sam Deluxe of Duke & the Drivers, earns his share of the royalties with his gritty treatment of the title track alone. While the rest of the album is slightly more pop oriented, there are plenty of opportunities for guitarist Bobby Keyes, drummer Dennis McDermott and guest pianist Kenny White, all of whom have played with big-time artists, to show their chops.” -Jeff Johnson - Chicago Sun-Times (Jul 30, 2006)
The Boston Herald on "Satisfy You"
Critic: A-
“Roots music made by adults. These local Mystix not only know their music history, but also the pain and happiness of their personal histories. The gravel voice of singer-songwriter Jo Lilly (Sam Deluxe of Duke & the Drivers) recalls Dr. John, Tom Waits and late-period Bob Dylan. Melding blues, rock and country, there is a touching, vulnerable gentleness amid the grit.” -Daniel Gewertz - Boston Herald
_______
Singer-songwriter Jo Lilly, known to many as Sam Deluxe of Duke And The Drivers, leads the band with his legendary gritty voice and soulful delivery.
The Boston Phoenix says guitarist “Bobby Keyes evokes an entire era of classic playing” having recorded with Jerry Lee Lewis, Ben E. King, and New Kids on the Block to name a few, and has been a studio player at the legendary Fame Studios in Muscle Shoals.
Drummer Dennis Mc Dermott—one of the great New York players having accompanied Donald Fagen, Rosanne Cash, Boz Scaggs, Shawn Colvin, Graham Parker—drives the band with abandoned precision.
Drummer Marty Richards now plays with the band as well. He drives like a 59 Cadillac! Watch for him on the new Peter Wolf CD and great stints with Duke Robillard and the legend, Jimmy Witherspoon.
Bassist Marty Ballou—the foundation, the bottom, and he plays over the top. His recordings with John Hammond, blues icon Jimmy Witherspoon, Duke Robillard and Roomful of Blues to name a few, affirm his place as one of the greats.
Saxophonist Crispin Cioe, the leader of the legendary Uptown Horns, has performed with the who’s who of rock and roll and R&B including The Rolling Stones, Joe Cocker, Lou Reed, James Brown and Solomon Burke. Enough said!
