At A Time When The Blues And Its Variations Are More Popular Than Ever Van Wilks Is Poised To Take His Music Beyond Cult And Critical Acclaim Here And In Europe. Mixing His Fiery Fretwork With Searing Slide And The Soaring Melodicism Of His Acoustic 12-String Van Wilks Is Blessed By What Kerrang! Praises As True "originality" From "a Unique Artist". Or In Simpler Terms As Jim Beal Of The San Antonio Express-News Declares "He Sure Can Play Rock ‘n’ Roll!"
