REVIEWS:
“Sunshine’s gift as a vocalist has always been pitched in that sweet spot between R&B intensity and jazz finesse, where effortless smoothness and casual swagger suddenly dig deep, roughing you up and breaking your heart a little. With this stunningly good album, he knows exactly who he is and what he’s trying to say. Hipsters strive for effect; the truly hip, like Ron, just do their thing, beautifully, and make it look easy. Ron’s tasty harp playing—passionate, inventive, surprising—is this album’s lagniappe, the perfect counterpart to the swinging rhythm section, and gorgeously mellow horns.”
-Adam Gussow, author of Journeyman's Road: Modern Blues Lives from Faulkner's Mississippi to Post-9/11 New York
“The heart of the album is the seven original songs. The lyrics fit the musical style without recycling familiar tropes; these are not pastiches, they are modern, intelligent lyrics, clever without being arch. That's how to carry on tradition: be true to its roots while updating its sensibilities. The tradition is in good hands on Bring It Home.”
-Steve Holtje for CultureCatch.com

If you have a question about an item, please feel free to ask. I will answer as quickly and completely as I can.
All electronic items are tested and described to the best of my ability, and demonstrated via YouTube video whenever possible. I have received more than my share of garbage in the mail that I purchased on eBay. The videos I post are intended to show that the actual item you are bidding on WORKS. Little compressed internet videos cannot convey the true sound of a mic. You have to experience that for yourself. But at least I can show that it works. "Untested" on Ebay usually means it doesn't work. That is why the items I sell are hardly ever (almost never) described that way. If I don't have the means to test something, I will say so. I value my 100% positive feedback rating, and aim to keep it that way.
Zero Feedback Bidders are Welcome. If I'm not mistaken, we all start out at zero.
Happy bidding!
FEEDBACK We strive to make every experience on eBay a great one! If you have an issue that needs to be resolved please email us prior to leaving feedback so that we may make it right. Our system is set up to leave positive feedback after we have been left positive feedback. * * * * * DSR STARS * * * * * eBay's new DSR star system is crucial to us sellers. We kindly ask that you leave all 5 stars when leaving feedback. We offer very low shipping rates, and many times free shipping just as an incentive to receive all 5 stars. 4 out of 5 stars can really mar our eBay status, listing exposure and seller fee discounts. If there is an incident that may not merit all 5 stars, please email us and we'll rectify the situation promptly. Dig that. We sellers are heavily penalized by eBay for a 4-star rating! Customer satisfaction is our #1 priority. Send an eBay message with your questions any time.
