RECENT REVIEWS:
MUSIC CONNECTION says..."It's like Springsteen meets Mellancamp, with a touch of Clapton tossed in. Melodic good time trips. Highly recommended."

STEPHEN STILLS of CSN says..."Some of these songs sound like something we'd do."

MUSIC ROOM MAGAZINE says..."If you like catchy hook laden good time Rock n'Roll with smoking vocals & tasty guitar work, this is the CD for you."

EARBUZZ says... "A rock and roll trip to the Ronderosa Rancho Motel is a straight ahead rock trip into the musical mind of Ronnie I. (Ron Iacopucci). Sincere and heartfelt words and music fill this record about love, sex, dreams and disenchantment with materialistic realities. Flavors of Springsteen, BonJovi, Mellencamp, Petty, and a rock sound that is all Ronnie's.
Highlights on the CD include "The Lone Stranger", with sentiment of dreams in a memorable chorus, 'those Hollywood high hopes and tinsel town tightropes can sure make a fool out of you boy'.
Ronnie I's CD, Ronderosa Rancho Motel, includes a song that has much "hit" potential as well,"Good Possibilities", has a great lyric and infectious hook - 'well my mind whispers 'take it easy' my body screams, please me please me please, good possibilities'.
Overall the production is solid with a spectacular 80's rock and roll sound - Ronnie's voice is smooth when needed and a growling animal when on the prowl. Cool record and fine performances."
