“There’s not a weak cut on this rich and varied outing, which is my pick for best blues album of 2015.”
MYRTLE BEACH SUN NEWS

“Keyboardist Bob Malone may have been the best musician on the stage outside of Mr. Fogerty himself.”
PITTSBURGH POST-GAZETTE

“Man! This is great. When it seems like nobody knows the beauty and joy in real soul and R&B, the fun and the funk, along comes Malone with a new masterpiece.”
AMERICAN SONGWRITER

“With Malone’s latest offering, he has found his mojo delivering a superbly produced blues rock album packed with funk and oozing with soul.””
NATIONAL ROCK REVIEW

“As a solo act his music is akin to what Fogerty and Creedence Clearwater Revival often specialize in: songs that tell tales from the ominous side of life.”
AXS TV

“You would never guess that “Mojo Deluxe” is Bob Malone’s seventh album; granted it’s packed with the kind of accomplished playing, tipping over into virtuosity, that you would expect from seasoned players, but there’s a vitality and freshness here that wouldn’t be out of place on a debut album.”
MUSIC RIOT UK

“He sings in a 2:00 a.m. closing-time bar-room voice ravaged by decades of cigarette smoke and whiskey (that’s a compliment). His scintillating electric Wurlitzer, Hammond B-3, acoustic upright piano, clavinet, accordion and stomp box…creates a truly rock and rolling idiosyncratic blues of personal proportions. In other words, his mojo is, indeed, deluxe.”
CLASSICALITE

“The mood is mostly upbeat, although there are certain selections — “Toxic Love,” “Rage & Cigarettes” and “Don’t Threaten Me (With A Good Time)” — that suggest Malone may be more subversive than initially suspected.”
ELMORE MAGAZINE

“Fans of rock-oriented blues will enjoy how Mojo Deluxe showcases Malone’s talents as well as what a tight band should sound like.”
LIVING BLUES MAGAZINE

“I first heard him at a WWOZ piano night years ago; his combination of piano skills, witty original songs and lunatic stage energy was totally winning. Mojo Deluxe is a different experience; except for the accordion-and-strings backed “Paris,” this is hard-edged rock ‘n’ roll with New Orleans flourishes (“Chinese Algebra,” the only piano instrumental, is a quirky delight).”
Tom McDermott - OFFBEAT MAGAZINE

““A true virtuoso and crowd-pleaser – he showed that while he is a fantastically technically accomplished player, he fully knows the meaning of showmanship as well.””
Shetland News

““If he could find a way to throw that Steinway grand over his shoulder the way a hot dog guitar player does, I think he would.””
NOLA Defender

“For an indie artist, the path to success is often long, built on perseverance and a commitment to the music. Exhibit A is Bob Malone.”
Berklee Today

“John Fogerty's five-man backup band was slouch-free — with the show-stealer trophy going to a shaggy-haired Bob Malone.”
Edmonton Journal

“A new peak in what's been a rather mountainous career, Malone's latest shows off everything that makes him dear to his loyal fans." ”
Paul Zollo - Filter

“US blues pianist Bob Malone cakewalked all over the keys with rip-roaring pyrotechnics that were part skill and part showmanship, often eschewing the piano stool and jumping around like a rock star. [But] beneath the banter and the wizardry Bob Malone revealed a raw and splendidly large heart.”
The West Australian

“Nimble playing and smart, sassy lyrics, There’s plenty to like here.”
Blues Review

“By the time Malone belted out the first stanza, the audience was his. The room roared like a turbine and the audience spent the rest of the night cheering for Malone as if he were the headliner.”
Jersey City Journal

“Bob Malone doesn't just accompany himself on piano. He supports his singing with pulsating, roaring keyboard work that grabs you and shakes you until you cry for mercy. ”
Richard Leiter - Keyboard Magazine

“Blazing and beautiful. Burning and elegant. Unique and timeless. Malone contains multitudes of rhythm, soul, jazz, blues, smoke and magic. It sounds as if he’s slept inside a baby grand for years, so intimate is he with the alphabet of the ivories. [Born Too Late] is one for the ages. ”
Paul Zollo - American Songwriter Magazine
