Tony Remy - Metamorfollow-G Reviews
Immediately communicative - with Remy
once again in an earthy groove, mixing a muscular beat with
soulful improvising.
John
Watson
Remy's
superbly tasty guitar is all over the album.
AW,
Straight no Chaser
Remy abseils happily
from George Benson smoothness to Hendrix incandescence with
style, grace and relish. If brats start bragging about their
axe heroes, shut 'em up with this.
Men
Magazine
This is a CD with
class oozing from every pit and pore of it's surface…a good,
solid Jazz album.

As always,
he speaks eloquently and elegantly with the guitar.

Remy's Blue Vibe
Of the albums 70-plus
minutes, more than an hour is devoted to Remy's inexhaustibly
inventive guitar, from blisteringly eloquent 12-bar blues
to fierce, punchy funk, bringing to mind not only rock icons
such as Hendrix but also later, jazzier players such as Mike
Stern and John Schofield.
Chris
Parker, The Times
A tremendously
versatile player, his style encompasses both the muscularity
of Mike Stern and the finely-boned finesse of Phil Upchurch.

Remy abseils happily
from George Benson smoothness to Remy, as we all know, is
a superb guitarist. One of Britain's best. The idea of this
album, recorded at a hole in the wall in an alley off Denmark
Street, decorated to look like what was au naturel in the
'50s, was to really get back to basics.
Jazz
Express
This
is the Tony Remy that I want to hear: greasy and gritty, with
none of the edges smoothed down. The songs are sweaty, lengthy
blues jams with our man showing that he can stretch out like
a true MF.
