Some reviews...

"BAD INFLUENCE'S "Where We Been" lays bare the band's influences, and as such the album is akin to a 13-tune program in how to acquire a taste for the blues." - Mike Joyce, The Washington Post January 17, 1997

"Other contemporary Blues bands may be original and even better, but Bad Influence does a great job mustering up all the emotion and grit they possibly could hope for." - John Fortunato of NY CD Blues

"...Bad Influence does these warhorse tunes justice, with a few nice twists." - Tom Townsley of Blues Revue Magazine
