" I can add to the list the outstanding showmanship of Australian jazz heroes, Adam Hall & the Velvet Playboys" - Australian stage
"There is a young man in a silvery suit casual in the spotlight, the hand in the pocket, the other holds a trumpet, from his mouth sources sounds, as you once knew Louis Armstrong you will know Adam Hall." - Noz.de (German)
"Irresistable" - Gerd Wieben, Blue Note Germany
"A satisfied crowd exited happily to swarm the gracious Adam Hall and the Velvet Playboys... Good luck punters this is a night to cherish." - Australian Stage
