"Sorry to say this has been my first real exposure consciously to Ben Sidran. I disc jockey at a Jazz Station near Portland, Oregon. This album appeared on our new release shelf several weeks ago. I played a couple of tracks on the air and went out and purchased a copy for my collection. It blew me away. This group of musicians are happenin' and the genius of Ben Sidran on this production is evident. The philosophic and lyrical voice clips worked in with the music are perfect. You want to join in with the rhythmic dialogue. The liner notes are a little sparse. The music is a groove through all 10 tracks. By the nature of programming music for air play, it is hard for me to listen straight through a whole album but with this album, I Loved it from "Little Sherry" to the cute female voice that almost sounds like she is smiling as she say's "Nick's Bump" on the last track. There is a bit of contrast from track to track so it never bores you. Check out this album, this is a great team of Musicians. Tim Taylor, KMHD 89.1 Please Note, 2 stars was a mistake, I intended 5 stars which it is."
We all should bump like nick

"Top jazz recording by stellar jazz performer/composer who blazes new trails while paying homage to those who came before him. As good a CD as you will find .
Not commercial but ever so good!"
