Music Industry Professionals Agree...
"R. B. has it all: the look, the talent, and the personality." Jim Halsey, The Halsey Agency, Director of Music Business Programs, Oklahoma City University
I'll Never Find Another You. "Excellent western swing outing, somewhat in the mode of Haggard or Strait at their best. Stone, if I recall correctly, is a boy I've liked before in this column; and I still say he's a star in the making." Robert K. Oermann, Music Row Disc Claimer
Song and video: Before Heaven Flies Away. "Herb Alpert sent your material to me insisting I look and listen. In my humblest opinion, I find you easily competitive with today's country market. I'm sure you will land the deal you want, it's just a matter of time." David Conrad, Almo/Irving Publishing, Nashville, TN
"R. B. is one of those performers we book as a solo artist or with his band. Knowing I can count on him delivering 110%. We book him on a regular basis for major corporate functions and also as a headliner or opening act for concerts." Gene Siler, Music in Motion, Laguna Hills, CA
