"Ry Cooder and David Lindley fans would do well to check out this tasty new release....I Ain't The Fool is one of the most consistently enjoyable blues-rock albums to come along in a long while."

"If you are acquainted with this astounding band you know that it is impossible to place their music in any kind of slot and say 'this is what it is.' It is simply incredible music performed by artists who are equally incredible. Rod Cook, Chris Leighton, Keith Lowe and Dan Tyack are, without question, among the very best at what they do. I Ain't The Fool is ingenious, imaginative and completely original. You will listen to it again and again to savor every perfect note."

"An eclectic blues-based set of mostly originals by this highly visible recording and performing guitarist and singer mixing acoustic and electric."

"I was so turned on by this music I had to listen to the CD three times before I could actually sit down and review it! Excellent Blues, Roots and Rock blended together with elements of many other genres. What a slice of ear candy this is!"

"When you bring gifted musicians together and allow them to express themselves separately, you can never go wrong. Rod Cook and Toast's album I Ain't The Fool perfectly demonstrates my point."

"The band's professionalism made the show a welcome relief from the teenage-angst bullshit at too many rock performances. It wasn't about looking styles, it was about twisting the optimum degree of music from the strings and cramming tight licks into small durations of time while leaving the audience nodding in rhythm."
