滚石乐队说:“根据吉米·里德( Jimmy Reed)和少年威尔斯( Junior Wells)这样有力的原著和标准,亚特兰大的廷斯利·埃利斯(Tinsley Ellis)释放了野性的布鲁斯吉他。不停的演奏使他的六弦吉他变得更加锋利……他的口才令人眼花…乱……他还获得了烟火技术,对手早期的杰夫·贝克( Jeff Beck)和埃里克·克拉普顿( Eric Clapton)。”
Tinsley Ellis (born June 4, 1957) is an American blues and rock musician, who was born in Atlanta, Georgia, United States, and grew up in South Florida. According to Billboard, "nobody has released more consistently excellent blues albums than Atlanta's Tinsley Ellis. He sings like a man possessed and wields a mean lead guitar."
Rolling Stone said, "On assertive originals and standards by the likes of Jimmy Reed and Junior Wells, Atlanta's Tinsley Ellis unleashes feral blues guitar. Nonstop gigging has sharpened his six-string to a razor's edge…his eloquence dazzles…he also achieves pyrotechnics that rival early Jeff Beck and Eric Clapton."
