Hooper shares the engaging strengths of the Canadian pop-folk master: melancholy, hook-laden melodies, especially the haunting ‘Before Time Slips Away’, sung in a road-weary sigh that’s smooth but not slick.” Steve Brooks, AUSTIN CHRONICLE. “Hooper has some very nice songs, and a firm, pleasantly gruff voice---a man with something substantial to offer.” John Conquest, MUSIC CITY TEXAS. “Dave’s strong, deep baritone voice sounds great. His songs have the authenticity of those written by one who has lived them.” Rebel Fagin, SLIPPED DISCS. “Dave is a prolific songwriter----he sang mostly his original tunes which were well known to his fans, who often sang the lyrics along with Dave.” Joanne Bateni, LAKE COUNTY NEWS online. ”
