"A rare find indeed,
the music of NYC-based Robert Urban combines a knack for gifted pop melodies
with a lyrically insightful blend of rock that's hard to top. Urban more than
proves his caliber as a gifted guitarist and a singer-songwriter worth checking
out"
- ROBERT SILVERSTEIN, 20TH CENTURY GUITAR MAGAZINE
"A moving & brilliantly produced album" - JEFFREY NEWMAN, NY Blade
News

"ELEGIES is a revelation from the exhilarating opening bars of THE WAITING
SONG to his thoughtful interpretation of Messiaen's LOUANGE. J'ACCUSE is one of
the greatest environmental protest songs I've ever heard - Do yourself a favour
& check this CD out!"- PHIL JACKSON, Acid Dragon Progressive Rock

his material but also in composition. Very solid, never over-blown, understated
where it needs to be, & always approached with style!" - RIBEAU - Deep
Art Radio, Colorado
"Now let me get this right - An openly gay man, playing in his own rock
band that doesn't suck... and you even like Led Zeppelin. Have I been thrust
thru some cosmic vortex into an alternate universe or what!?!? Dude - You
totally rock! And thanks for being a gay musician with balls!"-
FUZZYROCKERDUDE - Professional Roadie, OH

inspiration - Keep up the great work!" - BILLY BUDD, Founder-Gay Metal

seems simple, natural & coming from the self. The music appears to be the
work of a tight, cohesive group yet Robert did it all solo." P. GNANA -
