The NME gave the album a superb 9/10! There’s also a great feature with a peek at the diary of the producer of ‘I’m New Here’, Richard Russell.

The Daily Telegraph newspaper made ‘I’m New Here’ album of the week too!

  3. Love and respect from London UK. Just heard the new album the other night. A friend of mine said I just had to check it. Inhaled a little weed which didn’t hurt the process none. Listened to it all the way through, the old fashioned way, with no one saying a word. Genius! What else can I say? Best album I’ve heard in years. On a mission now to turn everybody I know onto it. Thanks for making it Gil and thank God for you still being around to make it.
    Gonna go out today and buy 3 copies. One for my best friend. One for my (ex) woman who I miss terribly. And one of course for me. Thanks again Gil. And much respect to Richard Russell too for some excellent production.

    Peace

    Love the new album & I finally found 1980 on cd, so relevant today as then.
    Peace to you

  6. I love your words of wisdom portrayed through your personal Jazz/Pop & Blues.
    I have followed you and actually met you in person with your whole band in Minneapolis at The Fine Line , I look forward to meeting you anew .

  7. Will the revolutionary pick up his e-mails, though? Please don’t go to Israel, Gil.

  8. It’s not too late to turn yourself around, and not support APARTHEID against the Palestinians.

    This decision on your part is really insulting to all of us that have supported you and spread the word all this time.

    And playing in Tel Aviv is also a betrayal of your own legacy.

    It’s never too late to turn yourself around.

  9. Please don’t play apartheid Tel Aviv. Don’t betray yourself, your art and your voice.
