What the critics are saying about Richie Barshay. . .
"Barshay, a player to watch, seemed to do all the right things this night, mixing subtlety and heat in the right measure."
    - Josef Woodard, JazzTimes
"He is one of those players who just needs to breathe on his drum kit to set up a rhythm. His light touch, incorporating tablas, electronic percussion and crisp-sounding cymbals, ensured that there was always an interesting pulse."
    - Rob Adams, The Herald, Edinburgh, Scotland
"All the right stuff, so we have hope...continues to impress us all with his swing and musicality. "
    - Bob Brookmeyer
"…Barshay, a teenaged drummer from Connecticut [age 19 at date of print]…is the reincarnation of Tony Williams when he joined Miles Davis's band in the '60s."
    - Eugene Holley Jr., JazzUSA.com
"percussion prodigy "
    - Kimberly O'Haver, The Moscow Times
"...a show-stopping drummer."
    - Owen McNally, The Hartford Courant
"...young drum phenom"
    - Jim Newsom, Portfolio Weekly, Norfolk, Virginia
