JazzTimes (7-8/95, p.128) - "...Bell and company lay down a solid set of grooves..."
Option (7-8/95, p.92) - "...Bell's harp solos are huge, brawling things, louder than a Mack truck, but still expressive. His style is soaked in decades of Chicago electric blues, full of life on the road and classic blues themes..."
Jazziz (10/95, p.101) - "...At 59, Carey Bell drives his swinging, Chicago-based sextet with full-throttle ferocity and a gritty voice to match his big, distorted harp sound....he makes his command of the instrument obvious. DEEP is a dose of classic...R&B medicine.
Sing Out! (8-10/95, p.140) - "...shows the veteran blues man at the peak of his powers musically...he's in complete control...performances you won't easily forget..."
