“ A GREAT show everytime! From the wonderful vocals and jamming guitar of Melanie, to the thunderous drums and bass, the band is in sync with each other and the audience. I have seen them several times, and I always look forward to the next time I'm in NYC to see them! “ - Brother Wolf, webtunes.com

"Better Living through Rock and Roll! Top Secret Line...A great compilation of the best stuff from ten years of Melanie Ray and company.... this band is the word rock from square one. Touching on the style of the Pretenders at times the backing band is always excellent and creative in style. Don't expect an over production here either, the songs are kept rockin' raw at all times with every bit of human feel left in the songs. A crying blue note and pop overtones make this good time nature loving band. Something very magical transpires on the CD in that making good songs for ten years you get good at it. Good rock sounds about “ life in the wild”...Better Than That.....the girl power of Melanie Ray with an all star cast of musicians....More straight forward rock in the company of legends. Pounds of raw talent and song writing ability inside the wall of rock and roll.” - D Day Records
