It is one thing to listen to Canada’s Steve Hill via the medium in which he strides, to be thrilled by the sound that comes across as you sit down with headphones in place, the senses tingling at the image in the mind of a musician taking the mantle of the one-man band to its absolute height of sincerity and fascination. It is quite another to witness it in action, to see the Blues played with deftness and spirit, the smile and the stare in your mind as the notes ring out in the praise of the genre.

Steve Hill, The One Man Blues Rock Band. Album Review.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 9/10

There is no history to the overnight sensation, the back story, the will and the desire are rarely played upon, it is all very sudden and instant, the immediate that gives way to the soon forgotten, the very best are those that gradually come up through sheer hard work, determination and set back after disappointment, hard times after frustration. It is in the satisfaction of knowing for a while that you were your best friend, harshest critic and withstood the pressure of being the only one to believe that makes The One Man Blues Rock Band you pursued, all the more sweeter.

Steve Hill, Solo Recordings: Volume 3. Album Review.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 9/10

It is surely impossible to dislike anything that come from Canada, almost an unwritten law that states across the rest of the world that the people north of the longest undefended border in the world are just to be adored, coveted, admired and looked up to; for how often do you come across anybody with Canada in their hearts and on their sleeves that isn’t just amongst the most artistically free and bewitching of entertainers and thinkers.
