CD Reviews " Hard Time Blues " Blues Matters Magazine 

Wilson's voice is perfect for the blend of blues, gospel and soul influences in his music.  A thoughtful and thoroughly rewarding album.  John Mitchell 

CD Review " Hard Time Blues " Heaven Magazine

Heaven Magazine (roots specialist):  Hard Time Blues is an album that many could use for emotional support. It's an extremely warm sounding album that will also appeal to an audience that do not really associate themselves with the genre. ****

CD Review " Hard Time Blues " 

Lust For Life (pop/rock glossy): this is much more than your average blues or soul album. Wilson deserves respect: not just for the music, but also for his message/vision of life. ***** (also marked as the reviewer's favorite album of the month,   

CD Review "Deep In My Soul "

 A down home cat that eventually found his voice while in the army in Germany comes home to down home where he hooked up with Jim Gaines and Muscle Shoals to deliver a bona fide down home date that sounds like it was cut on the ride from Memphis to Muscle Shoals. A real soul man with real soul, how come nobody sent his demos to Malaco a long time ago? This set makes it all down home no matter where you are listening. Hot stuff.

CD Review Time - Blues Matters Magazine

by Alan Pierce for Blues Matters Magazine, July 2015

From the trembling, swampy opening notes of Time To Move its clear that this is a very special record. Whether it’s the quality of the songs, the arrangement/production/performances of collaborators Eric Bibb and Staffan Astner, or the vocal gravitas of Big Daddy Wilson himself is unclear but this is a record with some serious mojo. The album’s title is it’s theme throughout and it’s a concept that resonates through every note that Wilson sings. His is a voice that is both timeless and classic, uplifting yet world-weary, but most of all authentic and unshakably magic.

CD Review Time - Rocktimes (eng)

by Joachim 'Joe' Brookes for Rocktimes, July 2015

“Time” is Big Daddy Wilson’s second release for the label Dixiefrog after “I’m Your Man”, and it continues the exceedingly successful cooperation. There are probably two men in the centre of the many musicians who accompany Big Daddy Wilson through the fourteen songs: Eric Bibb und Stafan Astner. This trio in different formations or just by itself composed all of the tracks. Besides, there are such established musicians in the line-up such as Morblus man Roberto Morbioli, bass player Paolo Legramandi, (John Lee Hooker, Zucchero, Lucky Peterson,Louisiana Red and many more) or Kai Strauss.

Nach I'm Your Man ist "Time" das zweite Album von Big Daddy Wilson für das Label Dixiefrog. Mit vorliegender Platte wird eine äußerst erfolgreiche Zusammenarbeit fortgesetzt. Im Mittelpunkt der Schar von Musikern, die Big Daddy Wilson durch die vierzehn Songs begleiten stehen wohl Eric Bibb und Stafan Astner. Dieses Trio hat in unterschiedlicher Zusammensetzung oder alleine alle Lieder komponiert. Im Line-up finden sich allerdings auch so gestandene Leute wie Morblus-Mann Roberto Morbioli, Bassist Paolo Legramandi (John Lee Hooker, Zucchero, Lucky Peterson,Louisiana Red u.v.m.) oder Kai Strauss.

CD Review Time - Wasser Prawda

by Bluespfaffe, April 2015

Es gibt zur Zeit nur ganz wenige Bluesmen hierzulande, die man gleichzeitig als Bewahrer der Tradition wie auch als Kommentatoren der Zeit ansehen kann. Big Daddy Wilson hat mit „Time“ wieder ein Album veröffentlicht, dass genau diese beiden Pole aufs schönste Vereint. Eingespielt und produziert wurde es gemeinsam mit Staffan Astner und Eric Bibb.

CD Review I'm Your Man - Mary4Music

by Peter "Blewzzman" Lauro, August 2013

Any woman hearing Big Daddy Wilson say "I'm Your Man", even though he was actually saying the title of his new CD, would probably respond with "Damn right you are". Man, this guys got it goin' on. Big Daddy is a distinguished and handsome looking, statuesque man who's smooth and soulful voice accentuate the package. On top of all that (like he needs more, right?) he's quite a talented composer of compassionate, emotional, spiritual and heartfelt lyrics who sounds crazy good when he sings them.
