“The first album from Gasoline Stove, songwriter Scott Morgan’s new acoustic outfit featuring the nucleus of his seminal country rock band Memphis, feels like the cool Sunday morning following the latter group’s hot Saturday night. And while you might therefore expect to find plenty of regret and sober reflection on Vultures on the Mainframe, Gasoline Stove also know that Sunday’s in the South are often days of celebration and hopeful rededication...”

— Seth Martin, SecretCarrboroNinjaPatrol

“You've heard this tidy sentiment: "Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans." If you take your cues from the two key cuts on Vultures on the Mainframe, the sneakily superb debut from Memphis the Band offshoot Gasoline Stove, life is what happens when you're hung-over and searching. "The County Fair" and "Sunny Day Suicide" tumble out like confessions, with no detail too sordid.........Elsewhere on this 17-song roots-music survey, you'll find admirable Dylan and Waits homages, a vigorously strummed murder ballad, and a number where guitarist/ songwriter/ Leatherman-voiced Scott Morgan and wife Shannon sound like they're channeling Rickie Lee Jones circa '79—good things all. Make plans to spend time with this one. ”

— Rick Cornell, Independent Weekly

“One of Morgan’s best attributes as a songwriter has always been the trust he places in the listener to stay with a song, even if it (gasp!) doesn’t dive into a hook within the first minute. On the album’s opener, “Streamline to Memphis,” for instance, Morgan and wife Shannon sing over an anxiously strummed guitar that continually threatens to break into a furious chorus but never quite does. The effect is one of increasing tension as the haggard voice of the narrator delves deep into his memory in attempt to connect past with present. The song is a suitable primer for the album as a whole. Whereas much of Memphis’ work was built around soaring instrumental jams, the pared down approach of Vultures allows Morgan to go long form with his lyrics. Songs like “Miss Purcell” and “Sunny Day Suicide” read more like lost character notes from a William Gay novel than the glib or scrubbed down image making you generally expect to find in this genre.”
