"Superb" Rolling Stone Magazine
"...The writing talent of Dylan or Guthrie... musical genius...hilarious and tragic, kindhearted and careless, all the complexities of a real human being." IMDb
Roger Salloom's voice quickly suggests a comparison to early Bob Dylan, but it's this vet's penchant for telling a great story that puts him in the same category. Time Out New York
Ironically, as the music industry that shunned Salloom has collapsed, his star has been modestly rising in recent years.Noah Schaffer, Worcester Magazine
"A hybrid of Dylan and McCartney" Kevin Matthews, Fufkin.com "He is still writing tunes which worm into your heart." Boston-Worcester Phoenix
"His voice is the most extraordinary thing" Kristy Eldredge, GloriousNoise.com
