****
"His throaty singing and his harmonica playing are true-blue in the idiom, but this is no conventional travelogue from the Chicago of 40 years ago: his songs are either set firmly in the present, like Wired World, or choose traditional motifs only to transform them, as in Down At Your Buryin'."
-- Tony Russell, Mojo: The Music Magazine (June 2005, U.K.)

"His songs possess a touch of class and a welcome social conscience too often absent from a genre that often relies on references to a long-gone past. Skoller and company deliver Chicago-style tunes worth repeated listenings."
-- Chip O'Brien, Blues Revue, June/July 2005

***1/2
"... we'd expect nothing less from an artist with such prodigious songwriting talents. 'These Kind of Blues' vaults Skoller to the upper echelon of the young lions of Chicago blues."
-- Jeff Johnson, Chicago Sun-Times

"These Kind of Blues! is a powerful album that needs to be heard... Not since the old days have I heard such passionate, straight-from-the-heart expression in blues lyrics... The songs project a seasoned maturity, a wisdom; they move way beyond the adolescent sexuality and tired heartbreak of too many modern blues songs. You definitely need these kind of blues."
-- Niles Frantz, Comin' Home WBEZ, Chicago Public Radio
