Rockblog.Bluesspot (GER):

“An album from German lands that can definitely hold its own at the top in terms of blues rock to blues […] This is a contender for album of the year for me in all the above categories.”

Blues Matters! (UK):

“’Holy Ground’ is a slow bluesy number, great vocals lift this tune, excellent guitar solo. ‘Suicide Boogie’ says what it means, a toe tapper. ‘Witch’ combines some great guitar work with heavy grooves. ‘Sewing Machine’  with Joe on his cigar box guitar, a blues stomper with a funky backbeat. Well crafted songs by a creative band on the rise.”

Blues News (GER):

“The band can impress their followers on the one hand with rocking tracks like ‘Witch’ […] On the other hand it is the pure blues that is in the balladic ‘Go’, in ‘Suicide Boogie’ and in ‘Sewing Machine’ […] ‘Standing on the Corner’ another showpiece.”

Blues Magazine (FR):

“Here is an album where blues rock made in Germany is fully expressed. The timbre and smooth voice of Joe Fischer impresses from the first track […] from powerful blues rock to slow blues that knocks you over. Remember this name, Blue Deal, a multi-generational group we will be hearing from, that’s for sure. So we are waiting to see them in France now. “

Nightfall (FR):

“BLUE DEAL shakes clichés. […] Bluesrock, sometimes traditional, sometimes modern, and here BLUE DEAL offers a particularly successful first album. […] Stratocaster and cigar box are in the air, like a successful marriage between Delta blues and what contemporary heirs have made of it.”
