(Burn This) You want straight ahead, no-frills heartland rock that bristles with a blue collar flair that says "Springsteen" and offers gritty, rockin' Americana recalling Steve Earle's early work with the Dukes? Then go with Scott McClatchy...[more]

Dave Marsh
Veteran Philly rocker turns in a fine set, including a deft take on Rod Stewart's "You Wear It Well" and "Margaret Ruth", a great original that could be a century old railroad ballad.

Philadelphia-bred, but now NYC-based, Scott McClatchy melds a rustic twanginess with a blue-collar sensibility. It's no surprise... read full review

Jacques Spiry, RFC French Radio
It’s the most important CD that I’ve heard this year. I was waiting for this like I was waiting for (Steve Earle’s) "Guitar Town" ten years ago. I have a show on a national network (RCF-France) and I am very proud to broadcast this to my listeners.

Roots Town Magazine (Belgium)
Timeless is an adjective that is too often abused in record reviews, but it definitely applies to this CD. The melodies are catchy, the lyrics are mostly about the man-in-the-street struggle for his daily bread.

Philadelphia Daily News
Scott McClatchy achieves what every performer strives for, to leave the audience moved in some way, to make their impact profoundly felt. One leaves his show with the impression of being privy to something special.

Arden Eaton, KAZU & KPIG
Scott McClatchy is the genuine article. The passion is palpable as he pours himself into everything he does. Topnotch songwriting combined with driving, exuberant performances...this is a high energy, no holds-barred, rough and tumble rockin' rhythm and roots! Yee-Haw!!

Ken Oliver, Country Standard Times
McClatchy takes the classic roots-rock forefathers like CCR, The Rolling Stones and Rod Stewart and couples them with the energy of a runaway steam engine.

East Coast Rocker
Absolutely phenomenal. Scott McClatchy manages to muster up more than enough power onstage. The band's affection for acts like Mellencamp, Springsteen and The Blasters is very evident, but rather than imitate these, they borrow something from each to form their own style.

No Depression Magazine
On "Blue Moon Revisited," McClatchy delivers a thrilling slice of urban rock and roll right out of the tradition that connects the Del Lords to Dion. On stage, McClatchy is leading his band through another twangy rave-up, all Georgia Satellites-rockin' with a Cuba-era Silos virtuosity.

Soundi Magazine (Finland)
McClatchy's songs are convincing stories from open roads across the country and the cities shaded by skyscrapers...his songs talk about hard working people and the strong spirit to endure.

Rock & Roll Confidential
"Gig Of The Month" - Scott McClatchy wanted to do something special for Christmas. It turned out to be a December 23rd benefit concert for the Union Of The Homeless and Operation life. Living Colour singer, Corey Glover and McClatchy brought down the house when they ended the show.
