quot;Rik Wright is a stellar jazz guitarist with a real slant on the future of the genre.quot; - Music Morsels quot;Immersing yourself in Blue, it's easy to feel the poetry of Wright's arrangements. Each musician lays a different verse, contributing to a narrative greater than the sum of it's parts.quot; - Between Sound and Space Throughout the entire album, bandleader Wright's guitar playing is creative and impeccable, without being flashy. Wright isn't a speed freak, nor does his ego seem to demand that he is always out front in the sound, which is refreshing. His understated guitar anchors all the pieces without playing all over the other musicians, giving the sound excellent balance. - Aural Innovations quot;Wright prefers a slow hand approach pregnant with meaning and nuance, a highly lyrical evocation drenched in lush tones and elongated notes...A finely extended flight.quot; - Folk & Acoustic Music Exchange.
