David Hinckley (NY Daily News): "Robert Ross is one of the most impressive young blues men around."
Rafael Alvarez (Guitar World, Baltimore Sun, HBO's The Wire): "Ross could make 'God Bless America' stand on its head and rock ... an imaginative writer with files of Twilight Zone tales ... soulful, vigorous guitar ... agile cat quick licks."
Tom "Bones" Malone (David Letterman Show, Blues Brothers, Saturday Night Live): "Nice stuff! You're doing the right stuff. You're the new Bob Dylan. I really like that! It's really great!" (talking about Robert's political protest cd, "What Are We Fighting For?")
Bill Carlton (NY Daily News): "Robert Ross is a fine singer, a snappy lyricist, and an even better blues rock guitarist ... cut from the same cloth as B.B. King, Muddy Waters, and Johnny Winter. Time after time Ross delivers the goods."
