Recycled Souls maintains the same high standard of musicianship
but is more in a singer/songwriter mode with the songs showing blues
influences rather than being more directly blues linked. The backing
musicians don't overplay and get it right for the style of each
tune. Erick has a good almost "smoky" voice and is a very
tasteful guitarist (think latter-day Eric Clapton for instance).
A couple of the reviews in the promo blurb call Erick a hidden gem
of the US Midwest and I can only concur.
Richard Greaves / Blues In Britain Magazine
ERICK HOVEY has a good band and a nice lead guitar. Recycled Souls
is a powerful album of original songs for those who like good old-fashioned
rock without the posing. 'Ain't Done With You' should be a world-wide
smash.
R2 Magazine / UK
Erick Hovey is a complete and exciting musician who at any time,
knows what works and what to do….I warmly recommend that you
do not miss the musical piece of work called Recycled Souls.

Erick Hovey's roots oriented Recycled Souls is interesting because
the CD is varied and Hovey's guitar work possesses a pleasant spiciness.

Erick, I gotta tell ya, I listened to 'Souls' this morning &
thought it was great. Liked every track. Hits our new rock shelf

for sending it along.
