"Wild and Free is everything a great live album should be: relentless emotion executed to perfection, yet not too perfectly. Castiglia is an exciting, underrated musician. Masterpiece was an excellent blues rock album, but hearing many of those same songs performed live, they're even better than the original studio cuts"

"Wild and Free from Albert Castiglia is the party blues-rock album of the year, if not the decade. Castiglia's song-writing skills, combined with his searing guitar and raw power make this a must have album. If you're not already a fan, you will be, and if this one doesn't get him nominated for the BB King Entertainer of the Year Award, then there's something very wrong with the system"
