“Neptune Rising is really an incredibly pleasing album. The material is incredibly easy to listen to, rewarding repeated listens with an experience that never grows old. Jim Steele is an excellent keyboardist; had this album been released 30 years ago, he may well be mentioned today in the same breath with players like Klaus Schulze or Jan Hammer or George Duke. It’s an incredibly appealing release, worthy of far wider acclaim and attention.”
- Bill Knispel, www.progscape.com
“Steele’s ability to shade and blend different keyboards in a pleasing fashion is a huge asset. Slightly laid back and groove-worthy pieces are linked with weightless spacey interludes as the whole affair floats seamlessly. Great job!”
-Warren Barker, Progression Magazine (Lowell, MA)

"Superb debut by this Fort Wayne, Indiana musician who operates firmly in the 70s jazz-rock mode of artists like Chick Corea, Jan Hammer or Herbie Hancock."
-Steve Roberts, ZNR Records
