WHAT OTHERS HAVE SAID
 | | "...a throwback to the "real" west coast jazz... evokes the | | | tight unison and yet free swinging innovation that one came to expect from the west-coast jazz of, say, the 60's... sort of a Conte Candoli or Mulligan/Baker feel, yet new. The unison passages between Rob Walker and Brent Jensen just swing like crazy... good jazz is back! - John Manteca CA, USA
|  | | "...A sound that harkens to the days of the late Lee | | | Morgan..." - All About Jazz
|  | | "Wow this is some really cool jazz...expertly played and | | | recorded just as well." www.bandradio.com
|  | | "Walker offers an earnest tribute to musical | | | predecessors—especially the legendary Miles Davis— without imitating them, choosing instead to invoke the spirit of the bop era while giving it his own modern spin" - All About Jazz
|  | | ...real hard bopping...makes me think of Chet Baker...One | | | could clearly find a lot of resemblance to old masters like for instance Miles Davis. www.fortunecity.com
