Other Music: Best 25 Reissues of 2010 Koen Holtkamp from Root Blog: Best of 2010 Jeff Witscher (Rene Hell) from Root Blog Pitchfork guest lists: Best of 2010 Michael Slaboch, Numero Group "He was a staple on the Detroit music scene from the mid-'60s through the '70s, first with the Detroit folk-rock band the Spike Drivers, then as a solo act, opening for the Eagles, Yes, Frank Zappa, and Black Sabbath. Motown Records even employed Lucas as an "exotic string" specialist; he can be heard playing balalaika, sitar, and a variety of guitars on albums by the Temptations, the Supremes, Stevie Wonder, and more. Lucas' debut has the same degree of eclecticism. You'll hear smiley folk tunes, bluesy guitar workouts, and powerful raga improv, all delivered by one of the great unsung music makers of his era." -- Daily OM Marc Gartman, Perfect Duluth Daily: Best of 2010 Sasha Morgan, Sub Pop Best of 2010 Leo Burnett: 10 you may have missed Matt Sullivan, Light In The Attic: Best of 2010 Soundscapes: 25 best reissues Poobah Record Shop: Best Albums of 2010 Ghost Capital Blog: Best of 2010 Scott McDowell, WFMU: Top 10 of 2010 (runner up) Isaac Slusarenko Jackpot Records, Best of 2010 Dolorean Blog: fantastic music of 2010 Ckut 90.3 Montreal: "Some may be saying that this is the re-issue of the year – we may agree." |
