  • Awesome lyrics, awesome vocals, awesome spirit, awesome band, awesome man
    author: TK

    This cd is nothing short of brilliant. Never Said Goodbye is a catchy, beautiful song that will not only embrace you, but you will embrace it. It evokes the beautiful shadows, sometimes sad, sometimes bittersweet, that we all see in our lives and yet we still smile at them. This song should be getting airtime everywhere. Play this once and you will be convinced... Matt Turk is just beginning... Lookout Dylan... Buffalohead rocks....'nough said?

  • Impeccably recorded songs
    author: Kurt Hoffman - Forward

    Matt Turk's eponymous debut features impeccably recorded songs. Turk is better when he's rocking out. On the edgy "Buffalohead," Mr. Turk's youthfully sweet voice and his penchant for guitar become power assets.--Kurt Hoffman Forward

  • Matt Turk is an exemplary singer/songwriter from the New York area.

    As the late Lillian Roxon raved about the young and relatively unknown Jackson Browne in her book Rock Encyclopedia back in 1969, Matt Turk may strike you as just as talented a find.
