Down Beat (11/92, p.38) - 4 Stars - Very Good - "..illuminate[s] the joy of playing for the shear kick of it...they undertake flights of imagination on a rewarding program of originals with roots in rich blues soil.."
Rovi
This interesting outing by an all-star group (guitarist Danny Gatton, altoist Bobby Watson, trumpeter Roy Hargrove, Joshua Redman on tenor, pianist Franck Amsallem, bassist Charles Fambrough and drummer Yuron Israel) is most notable for featuring the brilliant Gatton in a jazz setting. Together the septet, performs nine originals by group members and Gatton and Watson emerge as the main solo stars. Despite its somewhat generic name, this advanced hard bop date is quite memorable. ~ Scott Yanow
