Atomic Man CD
"A Killer guitarist… the true musical brilliance of Welton shines through like a priceless diamond. He is a brilliant composer and masterful guitarist/Pianist/Keyboardist and was clearly a musical mastermind."
Cyrus Rhodes - IndieMusicDigest

Hollywood Legend CD

"Really a fantastic work, highly recommended"

Carlos Ferreira, Progressiverockbr.com

"I really liked it a lot... Craig was very talented."

Guy Ferri, DeliciousAgony.com


"Craig's multi-instrumental prowess comes to the forefront on this second CD. The songs tend to be written from the piano upwards, and developed through the guitar and additional keyboards - both these instruments are well mastered and well executed. There are several beautiful, guitar melody tracks, my favorite being the laconic Deadlock with shades of Jeff Beck. Lush strings and piano forming the backdrop for this piece. Along with Craig's obvious flair for the guitar, he also had similar abilities in the keyboard department as displayed in Prague. Other highlights from the album were cleverly written Knosus and The Wait... a pretty awesome album."

Bob Mulvey,
Dutch Progressive Rock Radio

"Craig was a very gifted multi-instrumentalist; so varied and always masterful interplay between the solos of electric guitar, those of bass and synthesizer, and passages of piano are everywhere on the album. I Don’t Feel Dead and Cold Future represent a real progressive Hard Rock, while the last track on the disc, Travel Away (12), is an excellent Classic Art-Rock ballad.... while on Aires (13), there is nothing but the (wonderful) piano passages... any problems of a technical character cannot cloud the talents of any true artist, and the late Craig Welton was certainly one of them."
