Ray Shinnery
"..Just when you think his vocal is a standard, rough-hewn blues shouter, he turns around and lays down some of the shivery - sweetest, three part harmonies this side of the bible belt... there aren't many who can pull together as many strains of American roots music on stage as Ray Schinnery can..." - Blues Magazine
"Best received of the afternoon's performance was by Ray Schinnery...an entertaining rhythm blues - gospel based routine that is instrumentally and vocally superb as well as remarkably professional.' - San Francisco Examiner
