Critical reception

Country Standard Times Fred Frawley writes "Ron Block's Hogan's House of Music works on several levels. The release is a lively and admiring tribute to traditional and bluegrass sounds that made him the player that he is today."
Cybergrass.com says in their review "It’s been a good week for banjo and guitar aficionado Ron Block. Hogan’s House of Music, his first solo instrumental LP, debuted in the #2 slot on the bluegrass sales chart, spending 5 weeks on the chart and missing the top spot by just four units."
The Tennesseans Juli Thanki says "Ron Block is perhaps best known as the banjo player for bluegrass stars Alison Krauss & Union Station, but the instrumental virtuoso also is an acclaimed solo musician. This week he releases Hogan's House of Music, his first all-instrumental record."
John Lawless of Bluegrass Today' writes "Hogan’s House Of Music satisfies on every level. Fans of great picking will revel in the crisp playing and the lovely tones, whiles more general music fans will appreciate the beauty of the original tunes and the classic melodies."
