- Guitar Player magazine
"Stacy Phillips hits almost every high point on this
new release ("From the Inside), from klezmer to
Hawaiian to bluegrass to Western Swing. This album
is
just damn beautiful, and if I don't write about it
here, you may miss it. Phillips has a masterful
touch
on one of my favorite instruments. . . Listening to
this album is like listening to Gabby Pahinui, or
Mississippi John Hurt, or your favorite gentle,
totally fluid, totally present practitioner of
American roots musics. [GRADE: A+]"
