"Amazing! Absolutely astonishing! Not since Michael Hedges' Arial Boundaries have I been this in awe. Magraw's technique is flawless, but the magic is in his versatility, style, class, and feeling." Acoustic Access "Creating an aura of introspection, even when the playing burns red hot." Chicago Tribune "This truly masterful musician mixes rhythmically intoxicating, atmospherically composed groove cocktails." Scenario "He is all over his acoustic guitar, inventing chords, bending strings, rolling the bass note like distant thunder and squeezing sounds out of the instrument that should not, it seems, be possible… This passionate music, genuine compositions that come from the heart." Michigan Daily "Magraw proves once again that he's the Twin Cities' most resourceful guitaristin any genre." Twin Cities Reader "He belongs in the world elite of flatpickers." Logo Regensburg (Germany) "He can bend, tap, pluck and pick with the best of them, but he's more concerned with making the instrument swoop and glide above a varied terrain of styles and influence… Impossible to pigeonhole, and impossible to ignore, Magraw deserves to stand amongst the ranks of John Renbourne, Leo Kottke, and Michael Hedges, A class act." Dirty Linen "With Magraw's capable guitar… you can expect high energy, intelligent compositions… challenging, joyously melodic." Patriot Ledger "Magraw bends all the right notes, sneaking in unusual chord substitutions and harmonics, and accenting the rhythms with sharp offbeat strums." Berkeley Express "Dean Magraw is an outstanding guitarist and knows his equals in the likes of Michael Hedges, Ralph Towner, and Steve Tibbetts." New Folksounds (Netherlands) "This man is a nightmare for all flatpickers!… Clean lively and imaginative… My desire would be a live CD."
