"Stylistically the effect of the music parallels coming home from a trip to Maxwell Street with a box of dusty 45s and 78s on labels like Ora-Nelle, Blue Lake, Parrot or Cobra -- rough and tumble, meat and potatoes Chicago blues."
-Dick Shurman

"Playing with the Cash box Kings is the most fun I've had in 20 years!"
