Editorial Reviews ...put forth a music whose apparent simplicity is offset by a barely harnessed force and power....should reconvince the discriminating listener of how much the world benefits from groups like this. Option (05/01/1998)
4 stars (out of 5) - ...mixes staples of jazz tradition...with African rhythms and instruments....the quartet excels at establishing the compelling riffs and deep trance grooves... Down Beat (03/01/1998)
