Thank you Bill Wilson, Reflections In Blue for this great review of Ray Fuller and the Bluesrockers' upcoming album "Pay The Price" on Azuretone Records, release date May 28th.
"The opening tune on this album had me almost convinced that Ray had just crawled out of the swamp. It got my attention…big time!
...ORIGINALS SO WELL WRITTEN and performed that it is sometimes hard to distinguish them from the covers. In my book; that’s a win-win!" - Reflections In Blue
