Frank Ace: Press

."His leads are exploratory and tasteful, imbued with
enough fire to stir the heart as well as the head."
"His supple baritone is seasoned by a churchy graininess that lends substance to even the most trivial lyrics"...
David Whiteis - Living Blues Magazine

The smooth feel of the album has a production that is very reminiscent of the great Malaco label of the eighties. ...from the late, late saturday night cool sax, (provided by Chris Baker for the title track) to the humid, and sticky sound of the south...definitely worth a listen!"

“Cry U Out Of My Heart” is a moody, magnificent masterpiece that proves to one-and-all that Frank Ace is seriously overlooked and unheralded.
Here’s an artist who could easily become #1 Blues Man.

This is the (very) long awaited follow-up to guitarist/singer Frank Ace's 1999 Chueffa debut, "Get On Line, Baby."
"Cry u out of my heart" is another classy offering from a journeyman artist who really deserves a bigger rep than he has. I enjoyed it a lot; and if you have a liking for modern Blues stylings, I think you will, too."

Frank Ace, It's About Time, (Raina R.4840-11)
"Ace is a singer/guitarist in the B.B. King/Little Milton vein, and this self produced CD is a very polished, highly produced program of laid-back, late-night blues".

Get On Line, Baby
"If you are wondering what happened to real blues,check out this CD by The Frank Ace Blues Band.
Here you will find strong, straight ahead, down home blues - the kind that is defined in the dictionary". "You can't help notice the Albert King, BB king and Son Seals influence in his guitar solos and melodies".
"Throughout, Frank Ace delivers hefty vocals and piercing guitar solos. He is a gifted songwriter even if his influences are more than obvious on occasion. thanks to Frank's top quality production, the sound is crystal clear resulting in a live feel to the disc. Ace is motivated to be more than a good band and he states, "Blues is a feeling; it comes from inside". On this CD, he excels at both".

"Ace puts over a crisply played program of contemporary blues". "Based on the evidence here, it may be time for Frank Ace to step up from regional to national recognition".

Norman Darwem wrote, " Cry U Out Of My Heart is very, very
welcome."
"Frank has a muscular vocal sound"
"He is also a strong writer," "the arrangements
are more imaginative"
"a quietly impressive
release." Rating 8 - Norman Darwen

Anyone who has seen Frank perform, know that he is a great guitarist and singer.
"Cry U Out Of My Heart (Chueff Records) pretty much typifies Frank's live show, as this CD is filled with Frank's wailing guitar and insightful lyrics and vocals.
"I'm The One" in my opinion, perhaps the best track here.
This is an enjoyable release...
