What the critics say:

"Patterson leads the way with a soaring guitar, exceptionally moody in
the mellower passages, yet he still has the chops to add a little liquid
fire when it's necessary". -the Ottawa Sun

"Roy Patterson is undoubtedly one of Canada's leading guitarists, a
perfectionist with a big, dominating sound that turns every tune he
plays into a stimulating experience". -the Toronto Star

"...glorious clarity of tone, sophisticated voicings and featherlight
fingerwork...." -the Toronto Star

"The ego that animates so many guitarists these days is all but absent
from his playing". -the Globe and Mail

"..Every note that he plays seems to have a purpose and a place, and
both purpose and place usually have something to do with melody". -the
Globe and Mail

"[Patterson's] touch and the sound he gets from his instrument is
beautiful.....wonderful music". -the Jazz Report
