Review

"Will Heart & Soul become the next project for a lable that's located in New Orleans and records mostley Texas blues? Who knows, but Ben made sure that the one original and the Eddy Clearwater cover of "Crossover" they sent to Blacktop had lots of that sizzinling Elvin Cartagena/Stevie Ray Vaughan-sounding guitar on it. Stay tuned."

"Emotions and egos being what they are, no one is saying that this Blues Alley reunion will last, Ben still has heart and soul, which has forged itself into a guitar-dominated Texas style under the impressively intense and heavy guitar hand of Elvin Cartagena."
