"Where did this guy come from? Martin has turned in one of the strongest sets I've heard in a long time.

There is nothing derivative about Martin's music. The people and places in these songs ring true and strike at the gut. There is no dead wood, either every song demands to be heard." - John Calkins, Acoustic Musician Magazine

"Possessed of a slightly raspy delivery, Martin's solidly structured words create images of late night subway trains and post midnight mean streets, hobos jumpin trains, fishin' from an abandoned train trestle, long abandoned textile mills and so much more.

One of the most honest and truthful records it has been my pleasure to listen to. Forget the imitators this guy is undoutedly The Bob." - Arthur Wood, Folk Roots Magazine
