“Big Money, a fascinating crossover album of blues, jazz, reggae and funk” - The Edmonton Journal

"The highly regarded critic Tim Holek has called him Canada’s “King of Roots Music.” He has indeed been a bit of a Canadian blues legend for 40 years."- Mark E. Gallo- Blues Bytes

"Today their music is a sweet tiramisu consisting of liquor-soaked layers of Blues, Reggae, Country, and Jazz." - Richard Ludmerer, Vice President, New York Blues and Jazz Society

BROTHER OF THE BLUES: BluesWax Rating: 9 out of 10

"Terry Gillespie is one of the most sincerely talented musicians in Canada. He's a bluesman to the core, but not in the traditional sense for he has range and influences that take it to a whole new level. His blues is the truth and it comes through with every word and melody he wraps his soulful voice around. This is real." -Sue Foley

BROTHER OF THE BLUES was on Saturday Night Blues charts for 5 months, Jan to May 2007.
