CD ReviewsBlues Fun? You Bet! 07/05/1999 (5 out of 5 stars) "It's too bad Frank Stokes gets short-shrifted when compared with more voodoo-istic, depressed blues players of the 20's. He and partner Dan Sane are no less virtuoso just because they play really funny stuff ("Mr. Crump Don't Like It.") Here is a blues album you can listen to without intellectualizing it, although lots of references only make sense in historical context. And that voice! It's a curious mix of yelling and harmonizing that has no equal. Mr Crump May Not Like It, but you will!" Coolest blues musician of the time L. White | California | 03/31/2001 (5 out of 5 stars) "Frank Stokes took blues to a unique level by never really being down. He seemed happy to have the blues. I love this CD and anything I hear by him. He was into his own thing. His style of blues branched off from the mainstream into something that hasn't been equaled. Buy this!!!" Wonderful David L. Johnson | Forman, North Dakota | 06/29/2000 (5 out of 5 stars) "For anyone into country blues this is a must have. It is absolutely delightful."
