Union News Excerpt - Whole Review Here
...Mason's latest disc is called "Idiot Wisdom," and don't worry, he's still on a roll... ...This 11-song record is one of Mason's most consistent, and there are many other reasons to keep "Idiot Wisdom" in your stereo...
The Rogovoy Report - Go Here
...On “Ring-a-Ling,” the kickoff track of his terrific new CD, “Idiot Wisdom” (Captivating Music), Ray Mason sings, “Ring-a-ling, it’s so good to hear your voice.” It’s a sentiment familiar to longtime fans of the roots-pop genius, the Pioneer Valley’s answer to Elvis Costello. Chock full of memorable hooks and lyrical delights – including a song called “When the Ceiling Shakes Hands with the Floor” – the album boasts plenty of classic-style, original soul- and country-inspired roots-rock.
