Reviews:“Being a longtime fan of Jack Gates’ playing, I expected Earth Messenger to be good, but I was floored by how good it is. with its’ amazing blend of so many styles, this CD will appeal to a huge cross section of music fans.” - Matt Blackett, Guitar Player Magazine/Frets Magazine

“Jack Gates returns on Earth Messenger.
Soothing wordless vocals by Sharyl Gates combine with the leader’s acoustic guiitar for a mixture of lyrical refrains that do, indeed, prove sensual and totally at ease.”
- Jim Santella , Cadence magazine, Aug.2005
