He is one of a handful of the Best Players ever on the Instrument." – Blues Revue Magazine "Harmonica ace Mark Hummel has always surrounded himself with top notch talent. Hummel certainly spends time on center stage with both his vocals and harmonica, most prominently on the instrumental 'Walking with Mr. Lee.' Top notch from start to finish, skip this one at your peril." - Mark Smith/Music Revue The Memphis Commercial Appeal raved, “Rusty Zinn is the real deal. To say this is the best blues release of the year is an understatement.” The cuts on CONFESSIN’ play like time-capsuled tunes in a forgotten Memphis jukebox,” shouted Blues Revue. “If rompin’, stompin’ pedal-to-the-metal blues is your thing, here’s a record for you,” announced Vintage Guitar.
