Miles From Home reviewed on rambles.net

Ruby Dee & the Snakehandlers are Miles from Home with a mix of rockabilly and roots rock. “Plenty of hard-core country accents, too, but most of all, it’s the beat and Ruby Dee & the Snakehandlers’ chops, humor and solid songwriting that trigger the pleasure,” Jerome Clark says. “Though this approach is best done live in its native habitat — funky blue-collar bars — Ruby Dee and her band know how to put an approximation of that sound onto an album. If you like rooted electric hillbilly music, you’ll have no complaints about what the Snakehandlers do with it. Their love for this distinctive genre, more than half a century old and yet unkillable, shines through.”
