"A sure-fingered guitar virtuoso"
Boston Globe
"Randy Armstrong is a virtuoso of versatility."
NH Magazine
"A sonic joyride from start to finish."
Portsmouth Herald
"What regrets could Randy Armstrong possibly have after recording an album so well executed and visionary in scope? "No Regrets" exudes a complexity both in rhythm and melody that the vast majority of musicians will never know."
