Reviews

"Especially DAVID CAGLE is an amazing vocalist, who reminds me of a cross between the ENCHANT/SPOCK’S BEARD singer TED LEONARD, NEAL MORSE and the legendary JOHN ELEFANTE. If you ask me I would say that you can’t get any better than such a type of singer, so combined with the strong instrumental back-up and songwriting by Jeff himself, the material with David on vocals is very sensational."

---from Strutter'zine's review of Majestic: V.O.Z.

"“The Greatest” could be a preview of the band’s future direction, since it features new vocalist David Cagle. If that’s the case, it’s a positive direction. He has a great voice with a lot of range and expression."

---from heavymetal.about.com's review of Liberty N' Justice: The Cigar Chronicles

"Highlights out of the originals are the heavy anthem Devil His Dues (Derrick LeFevre Vic Rivera, Michael Feighan & Barry Graul; the straight ahead melodic hard rock of The Greatest (David Cagle, Mark Allen Lanoue & Brad Stetler); the powerful rock ballad Under Construction"

--- Melodicrock.com review of Liberty N' Justice: The Cigar Chronicles

My first appearance on a Melodic Rock album - alongside veteran rock vocalist Joe Lynn Turner (Deep Purple, Yngwie Malmsteen) - not too shabby - although the release created tension between Joe and Scott Rolaf :)

"...new 2011 track sung by David Cagle, "Throwing It All Away", a top class modern melodic rock diamond..."

"Your Memory Just Won't Do" - a song I co-wrote and sang from Liberty N Justice's "Hell is Coming to Breakfast" is a "stand out track" according to this reviewer!

"'Your Memory Just Won't Do' is a rock solid ballad track"

Another review of LNJ's "Hell is Coming to Breakfast."

"David Cagle provides the heartfelt touch on vocals"
