 “What we hear in this acoustic marvel is an intimate tête-à-tête celebrating 40 years of friendship.” — Amos Perrine

 “As Kaukonen launches off, Hurlbut holds down a hypnotic groove. The two guitarists spin out elemental psychedelic bliss, free of electronic gimmicks and studio tricks. This is just two guys, two acoustic guitars, and some microphones (with expert production by Justin Guip, better known as Hot Tuna’s drummer).The record proceeds with songs that shift from the hopeful to the despairing, occasionally embracing the bittersweet. And that’s what I mean by conscience; the tunes are not just good to listen to but also serve a purpose by sending a message, whether it be to raise a voice in protest or entice reflection.Hurlbut’s performance resonates with emotional sincerity; his singing sounds like it flows from a guy who has seen a few things, good and bad.” -Scott McLennan

“When I first heard John Hurlbut’s and Jorma Kaukonen’s acoustic album, The River Flows, my being instantly welled up to the sound, welcoming it like an ocean does a river. With tears filling my eyes, the quality of the music made me realize—There’s something about greatness that opens the soul to living.” – David Atchley, The Grateful Web
