- Creative Loafing, Charlotte Nov. 2nd 2005
"Strauss'' Gone Electric...it''s a keeper...with Strauss bringing a blues influence and a Tom Waits affinity to the https://www.tradebit.comt striking is the album''s middle third, as two rave-ups (the Feat-ishly funky "New Legs" and "Halfway")give way to the whisper of "Go" and the country roller "Where''s the Fire"
Rick Cornell-The Music Monitor June/July 2005
"His bloozy alt-country is lyrical and emotional, and his
raggedy burr falls somewhere between Billy Joe Shaver and
Mark Knopfler."

he covers, which include hot blues, jazzy pop,country
and classic rock."
