for this CD!

"We come around the great bend in life and, if we're lucky, there's another song waiting for us. Many of us have lived long on song. Food and air and water may also be necessary, but without the song in our life, we would, indeed, be stranded and desolate in these lackluster aspects of living. It is song that lifts us from the mundane and fills our heart with joy. Ronny Cox in his latest album on Bay Sound Records spins some musical magic to charm many a cloudy day; it will bring some sunshine to your world. Guarantee you!

"Ronny Cox, a rather successful and well-known actor, has created a really comfortable and entertaining live album--'Ronny Cox at the Sebastiani Theatre.' You'll love it. Difficult to classify his performance as folk music, although if you're in the mood for folk music this will please your fancy.


"Here, there's the plaintive storyteller in 'Bus to Baltimore,' the jaunty childhood remembrances of 'Hotwater Cornbread,' a saucy and quite sacrilegious 'Who's the Baby's Daddy.' But the possibility is quite strong that you'll find Ronny Cox with more musical depth, more persuasive power than any folksinger. Without question, his songs are intriguing.

"Your personal favorites will trend, more than likely, to 'Quintanaroo,' 'Love Slips Away,' and 'Radio.' Is there a hit song on this two-CD package? Hard to say, but you'll find yourself listening over and over again to 'Quintanaroo.' There's something haunting and mystic about this song. Enduring.

"Although Ronny Cox has achieved considerable success on film - 'Beverly Hills Cop' and 'Deliverance' among his more than 50 movies - and television, his musical performances on these two CDs will also prove enduring. Just FYI, he played guitar in that famous dueling banjos scene in 'Deliverance.' Thus, he's not a newcomer to song even if his songs may be new to you. You and Ronny Cox - and his songs - are destined to become old friends."

--Claude Hall


"Distinguished actor Ronny Cox is a lifelong roots musician with a deserved and growing following. His originals are steeped in the Southwest, with vivid imagery of the joys and sorrows of people today or 150 years ago. Performing with his acoustic string band, Ronny Cox is like Tom Russell meets the Sons of the Pioneers, with a social conscience and fine storytelling that touches something deep inside each of us."

--Larry Wines, 'Folk Works'
