"Dom Flemons' first solo album since leaving the hugely successful Carolina Chocolate Drops finds him coming out with all guns blazing, gleefully scat singing over clarinet and six-string banjo on Til The Seas Run Dry. It's as authentic a piece of early New Orleans-style jazz as you're ever likely to hear ... When he does venture into confessional singer-songwriter territory with Too Long I've Been Gone, what emerges is a song of timeless fingerpicked melodicism and lyrical economy that sits just as comfortably in the present as is would on a late '60s LP by Arlo Guthrie, Dave Van Ronk or Ramblin' Jack Elliott ... Undoubtedly one of the best albums of the year in its own right, Prospect Hill is also a portal through which would-be time travellers can enter on their journeys into previously undiscovered musical territories"
Living blues, 2014 August
"Dom Flemons, who ended his nine-year tenure as a member of the Carolina Chocolate Drops following a December tour, sounds like he had a lot of fun making 'The American Songster: Prospect Hill', his wonderful, variety-filled maiden voyage as a solo recording artist ... Having almost singlehandedly reestablished the long-dormant songster tradition once performed by many itinerant African American musicians that included blues, rag, pop, folk, hillbilly, hokum, and church songs, Flemons also shows himself to be a first-rate tunesmith ... No musician in recent memory has tackled so many different idioms with such sincerity and style as Flemons, making him easily the most gifted American songster of his generation"
