" It (One Of Us) also introduces the other main solos voices, especially
guitarist Noel Borthwick, who swings hard with the best of them and shows us where he’s coming from... He and
the leader fit one another hand-in-glove throughout...."
~ John McDonough, Downbeat Magazine, HotBox Review, May 2010
Noel Borthwick never fails to surprise with the abject beauty and linear manner in which he moves the melody along. There is never a wrong step. Sometimes the guitarist seems just half a step behind, while other times he appears to race ahead to lead the melody into a new harmonic realm. His solos continually bring forth inventive ideas, which begin with interesting phrases and lines, and invariably open new avenues for the musicians to explore together or individually, as the music may demand.”
~ Raul daGama, Editor, AAJ
"My special kudos go to Noel Borthwick who plays some of the most exquisite guitar I have heard in a long time, reminding me sometimes of the best work that I have heard from guitar greats (some of the best work from Pat Martino comes to my mind). 'One of Us' is an album that you can listen to many times, always getting new and rewarding things from."
~ Eugenio Toussaint
"All the tunes are rich, lush, and highly emotional... Noel’s playing is extraordinary with a great time feel and a warm engaging sound..."
