“Talented personnel from Memphis and Muscle Shoals combine to make an exiting package for the debut of Ben Atkins. His voice, sure to take him to the top of the list of blue-eyed soul artists, is tender and soulful on “I Love This Song” and wails gospel-like on “Shine On”. Should see instant radio action with sales to follow. Smell cover before playing.” (Billboard Magazine)
