“LEGZ! Had my headphones on loud! wow,hits you right in the gut. Brilliant guitar work, compliments to the bass player (MAJESTIC) blew me away. Very good mixing and arrangements. Guitars are very elegant and ole style strumming/picking. Short and melodic guitar solos. BRILLIANT, pleasantly surprised.”

"Yea Art, you are very, very smooth which is quite refreshing. Saw your clip @ DD with Bill Hanna; wow! I'm from Charlotte and always like to stay close to the Charlotte musicians. I used to play with "Grub" Thornburg when he live down here in MB. Small world. Have a great day Art."

“For this reviewer, the vocals and guitar work of Charlotte based musician Art Bell channels effectively the best aspects of the work of singer-songwriter J.J. Cale. J.J. Cale, composer of "After Midnight and Cocaine", has been one of Eric Clapton's greatest influences. There is a smoky, subtle quality to Bell's vocals that recall Cale and a guitar style that echoes some of the best work of Clapton, SRV and Hendrix.
Of the 15 tracks on Bell's "Roof Top Parker", 9 were written or co-written by Art Bell. Bell's songs are well crafted and well played. Even more impressive is the fact that with the exception of Bob Enos on drums, all of the instruments featured on "Roof Top Parker" are played by Art Bell. The lyrics of the songs are witty, especially on ""Facebook Fix", which states "It doesn'ft cost me a bit, won''t you give me a click" and effectively serve the theme and thrust of Bell''s songs. ”

“You are amazing... loved the guitar harmonies. I enjoy just about anything with a latin flavor and this was enjoyable. Not an easy feat track by track so I'm appreciative of your efforts and willingness to share your gifted accomplishments! PS: Why are you here and not in L.A., NY or Nashville?!?!?! ;-)

“Nice work Art! Tasty licks with finese on the guitar. I'd remix a bit with the piano accompaniment a tad underneath your work on the guitar. I don't know why but I'm hearing vibes in the background carrying the song bed a bit more. Again, nice job. Thanks for sharing!
