“On Bob Malone’s new album Mojo Deluxe, the keyboardist whacks listeners’ ears to attention with the skill he has honed over a lifetime of playing blues, soul and rock ‘n roll, reminding us that real blues music comes not from the instruments but from the feeling behind each note.”
“You would never guess that “Mojo Deluxe” is Bob Malone’s seventh album; granted it’s packed with the kind of accomplished playing, tipping over into virtuosity, that you would expect from seasoned players, but there’s a vitality and freshness here that wouldn’t be out of place on a debut album.”
“Keyboardist Bob Malone was also a star; his sprawling solos on I Heard It Through The Grapevine were a lesson in dexterity and stamina. (He also looks like he’s having so much fun.)”
“A true virtuoso and crowd-pleaser – he showed that while he is a fantastically technically accomplished player, he fully knows the meaning of showmanship as well.”
