About Me

"Jordan offers blistering guitar solos... Shades of Jimi Hendrix, Carlos Santana and Jeff Beck... The leads are very clean, electrifying and super fast..."-Music Connection Magazine"A heartfelt ode to the redemptive power of music... A 70's style meld of rock-tinged funk and and neo-psychedelic organ/fretboard interplay, with dollops of pop romanticism... Irony-rich... Harmony-rich... Jubilantly danceable... Inventive lyric juxtapositions... Tough enough for street cred and sufficiently boho-literate to please the hipsters."-Living Blues Magazine"Oscar Jordan offers a triumphant second album that brims with the varied influences of soul, funk, gospel, Latin rock, and even psychedelia... a guitar wailer in the classic sense... sincere, heartfelt and lovely... Jordan's one to watch."-Blues Revue Magazine"Eclectic Soul is designed to appeal to people who love the attitude, soul and passion of blues, rock and gospel music blended with a fiery and soulful guitar and a emotionally charged voice."-Guitar Nine Records .. Undiscovered Artist for August, 2004"Jordan delivers on the promise of dropping jaws with his talent, culminating in a shredding guitar finale that blew away the crowd and left them wanting more."-Music Connection MagazineClick The Photo and Check Out Oscar's New Blues Jam Interactive DVD!Oscar Jordan with his Performance Custom Strat 10-13-07.Live @ Cozy's Blues Club 12-28-06
