...This recording deserves a billion stars. These two musicians are so incredibly married to their musical intentions that their music is overwhelming. Had I been at the live performance at the Empty Bottle in Chicago in 1999, I know that I would have not been able to leave in one body. In fact, having listened to the CD already a dozen times, I have to pinch myself to see if I am still able to function. — Lyn Horton (review copyright 2001 jazzreview.com)
