     "I have hundreds and hundreds of recordings by singer/songwriters, and in my opinion, David is the greatest out there today. Strong words, but easily backed up. All you have to do is listen."

     "We met an amazing singer-songwriter on the road recently, by the name of David Roth. We're pretty new to the whole "folk" phenomenon, and we sometimes don't feel comfortable with acoustic guitars and nothing else...but David takes the "nice guy singing and strumming" concept and turns it upside down: he's AMAZING."

- Groovelily, New York City, 6/01

- Steve Coccia, Mansion Concerts, Middletown, NY
