"All of the songs in the album explain, in different levels, parts of her as a musician and as a person. In “Wild One” she even makes a reference to one of her biggest influences, Stevie Ray Vaughan, who could easily be imagined stomping his feet and nodding in approval listening to her solos in the electric guitar driven “Down Down Down” “Livin’ Loud” and “Green Light.”

"Diana Rein is one of the blues world’s rising stars. Long Road is the result of Rein’s being able to combine blues and rock seamlessly, not always the easiest thing to accomplish. “Wild One” is a stellar tune that exhibits in your grill guitar riffs, along with haunting vocals that have the listener playing along on air guitar! One of our favorites is “Livin’ Loud,” a slow-grooving number with a dark beat, destined to have heads bobbing throughout the song. Rein confirms she is a rare talent with the ability to capture the listener and hold them throughout the album. A gem that should be in every blues fan’s music library."

"Instead, "Long Road" opens with Diana Rein's voice and oh my dear readers, there came that overpowering magic once again. Like when I first heard Emmy Lou Harris, a sound so clear and honest, penetrating to the very core of my being: that voice. Her guitar makes its impressive presence known soon thereafter and what a matched powerhouse combination of vox and ax. I had read that she was heavily influenced by Stevie Ray Vaughan and I was expecting somewhat of a clone sound, but nothing like that. Honestly, the only true parallel I can draw between Ms. Rein and SRV is that their notes are never wasted, familiar tone to Stevie, but again the vocals: like Stevie's there is almost a spiritual quality to the sound of her voice."

"The listener gets a good taste for Diana Rein's sparkling vocal tone on the first song, which is also the title track. I love the guitar riffs on 'Wild One,' my favorite song. Long Road is proof that Diana Rein can do whatever she wants musically - writing, singing or playing. An unbelievable album from an unbelievable talent."

“...making their live performance debut is what those in the know are already calling Southern California’s “coolest new blues-rock ensemble”, Diana Rein & Papermoon Gypsys.”

“Diana Rein combines a soulful voice with the soaring melodies of her blues-rock guitar.”

“Singer/Songwriter/Performer/ Producer Diana Rein's greatest attribute,(is) as a songwriter and vocalist that gives her the “swagger” that blues bands find so out of their grasp. Now Ms. Rein is a story I want to tell! She could be the next Bonnie Raitt..”

"On Long Road, Diana Rein, who was born in Romania and raised in Chicago, doesn't just show off her incredible guitar playing, which is reminiscent of Stevie Ray Vaughan with a sprinkling of Buddy Guy & Jimi Hendrix, but also her powerful voice !! Killer Vocals, Killer Guitar, Killer Rock !! With music like this, Diana's Rein as "Queen of Blues/Rock" will be a long one !! "
