CPR's Reactivated
author: Guy Moore
Holy Moly !! This is some of the tightest, slickest instrumental music I've heard in quite awhile. At times it brought to mind the music of Jeff Beck. These guys need to be heard. And the gal on bass... WOW!!!!!!!!!!

Wow!! How 'bout an extended live recording of these songs?
author: Steve Gledhill, Oswego, Illinois
CPR's Reactivated is the authentic instrumental guitar rock album. It delivers the audiophile sound as advertised with each instrument having its own identity on the soundstage. Ricketts' guitar comes alive with an awesome stratty bluesy gritty feel to it. He doesn't hide behind effects but delivers powerfully, yet artistically, in his musicianship. The music comes from a simple retro approach and these cats just simply play their hearts out. The title track highlights the incred-ability of Clark on drums and Pauken--a chick--on bass. "Bluesy Groovy", the final track, accurately describes the attitude of this band. No wasted chops here with 11 cuts in barely 36 minutes. It would be really cool if CPR did something live with extended play. Some of these songs faded to black while something interesting still seemed to be happening. A live CD would leave each cut with a big happy ending.

Mike Ricketts is the best "unknown" guitarist in the world!
author: Clay Huestis
If you love guitar, this CD has just about everything for you. Mike Ricketts is a virtuoso and on this disc he is unleashed and shows what he can do in a variety of styles. Every track oozes with Ricketts' enthusiasm for making music. Jeff Clark, as ever, is an awesome drummer and Molly Pauken is an nice addition who fits in perfectly with these accomplished musicians.

I got a fever and C.P.R is the only cure! The day I recieved REACTIVATED I listened to about five times in a row in my boom box while in bed. At 1 a.m. I forced myself to take the boom box into the hallway so I could function the next day. This is truly a perfect disc, REACTIVATED is a must have! These musical freaks of nature will rock your ass off!
