Funky, rockin' scorching blues that will make you dance and sweat and say, "wow".
"Billy Hector has become the spearhead of New Jersey's blues artists, and with a new album he confirms this status, an all-stars work in which he is accompanied by many musicians,... The addition of a beautiful section of brass, but also great parts of keyboards that beautifully enhance the Stratocaster of the Master of Ceremonies. From blues roots to blues rock to rhythm'n'blues, progressive hints and even some hip-hop-tinged experiences, Billy Hector invites us to a real exercise in style, one guitarist at a time swift and virtuoso whose game could sometimes be compared to that of Buddy Guy, but also that of an excellent songwriter dubbed a rich and interesting singer. In eleven original pieces and two traditional adapted to the homemade sauce, "Someday Baby" manages to offer us a fairly complete round of the issue and is illustrated by issuing a fairly complete order with very original pieces like "Butt Naked And Funk" , "Moonlight In Her Eyes" and Whiskey "but also with other more classic ones like" Wizard Of Babylon "," Busy Man "," Jolene "and" Road To Happiness ". Add the re-workings of "Alabama Bound" and "On Your Bond" and Billy Hector is brilliantly signing a highly successful album. No wonder some already consider him a blues legend!". Fred Delforge, Zicazine
"As a musician Billy Hector always remains passionately involved and wants to make his audience move and sweat. On 'Some Day Baby' this veteran has succeeded quite nicely! ... " Eric Schuurmans- www.rootstime.be

New Jersey Blues Legend BILLY HECTOR releases “The Fire Within” , featuring three new Hector original singles .
"In the realm of local guitar heroes, there are few players who can touch the Fender-scorched majesty of Billy Hector. And Hector's latest release, "The Fire Within," may be only four songs long, but he makes every incendiary note count.
Hector is in top form here. The hard-rocking single "Fake I.D." features both fine slide work from Hector and guest guitar duties from Mickey Melchiondo, also known as Dean Ween. And how Jersey is Hector, you ask? This track gives a shout-out to pork roll and cheese, as well as some other less savory vices.
The baroque rocker "Broken Down" shimmers with wounded light, "Step it Up" is a party rocker through and through, and the disc-closing cover of the Rolling Stones' "Memory Motel" has a bittersweet, closing time feel that ends the record on just the right note.
Throughout, Hector is joined by plenty of ace players: along with Melchiondo, there's Bon Jovi guitarist Bobby Bandiera on "Step it Up," singer Suzan Lastovica on backing vocals and Ween and Rollins Band drummer Sim Cain." (Alex Biese, Asbury Park Press)
