Editorial Reviews ...Who knew...that an `orchestra' of tubas could supply the lovely sea of harmonies for a gorgeous tune such as `Stolen Moments?'....a disc that admirably showcases both Johnson's talents and the state of the tuba in today's music. Option (09/01/1996)
3.5 Stars - (out of 5) - ...Between phat, full-bodied chords and surprisingly high-pitched bop runs, they set a new standard of oompah madness, if ever there was one. Contrast keeps GRAVITY!!! from becoming just another textbook for tuba students... Down Beat (12/01/1995)
