David F Hughes - Producer of LAST OF THE MISSISIPPI JUKES
To watch Dave Fields is a huge inspiration. To be in the room with Dave Fields when he’s performing is really electrifying. You’re completely drawn to him.

Roxy Perry: Back In Bluesville (Blue Perry Hill; 45:48) ***1/2 Perry hits pay dirt on her third album, building dramatic tension with a big, dark singing voice that shows her control over contemporary and traditional blues styles dating back to the 1920's. This longtime campaigner on the New York-Connecticut-New Jersey front is savvy about the importance of intonation and delivery to her craft. She also plays a good Chicago blues harmonica, and is fortunate to have
Dave Fields around as her clear sighted co-writer, guitarist, keyboardist, album producer, arranger and engineer.

"One of the top guitarists in NYC, this guy will blow you away. Look out for this him, he's got something special here."
Barry Hirschberg - Independent Producer/Editor TV Land President Hirschberg Productions
“Rock, R&B, Jazz, Blues….There’s not a type of music that Dave Fields can’t play and play well! As a studio musician he is among the best I’ve ever worked with…and I’ve worked with the best! Tony Mottola, Vinnie Bell, Bob Rose, Jimmy Ryan, just to name few. Plus he’s an arranger, writer, incredible performer and a keyboard virtuoso as well!
To watch Dave Fields on stage is something you will never forget. He does things with a guitar that seem impossible and may make the most skilled guitarist feel inadequate!

….Dave Fields, who arranged and produced "Back In Bluesville", is definitely at his best on this CD. "Back In Bluesville" is such a great effort that we thought you'd like to know all about it … The arrangements by
Dave Fields are extraordinary, with solid punch and great horn and rhythm lines. The first tune, "Back In Bluesville" will knock your socks off! Great care with the arrangements and the extra fine-tuning of the production is what makes this CD sizzle and it's what won Perry the award in Memphis.

"Dave Fields is that rarest of musicians- one who has been successful in both, the often diametrically opposed, worlds of commercial music and creative music for over 10 years. In the former, he's created an amazingly diverse body of music for an equally diverse range of clients and assignments ranging from song parodies to radio and television commercials all the way to film scores that only a musician of uncanny range, ability and flexibility could create. At the same time, he's constantly brought his latest original music to the public via both records and regular live appearances. His original music, especially his
Solo C.D.'s, show a musician who's managed to distill this extraordinary range of talent and influences into a unique sound and style that deserves to find a large audience."

HE BLOWS ME AWAY!
Do yourself a favor and grab a copy of the FIELD OF
VISION CD.
This CD lives in my player, every single cut is a favorite for one reason or another.
May it be with the melodic joy ride it takes you on, the music production, the unique compositions or the STELLAR guitar work, Dave Fields nails it all in one spectacular package.
Just when you can’t get enough of the CD....you go and see him “LIVE”. This is where you learn that there were no studio tricks!
This is the REAL THING! --unfortunately the last song always comes too soon!
I have been waiting for the "rock guitar genius" of today to make his presence known.... and finally,... HE IS HERE!... nice to meet you Dave Fields!
