"When I first played this CD I almost pulled my car over to the side of the road because I completely lost my concentation. I actually started laughing because I could not believe what I was hearing. Absolutely flawless solos and improvisations from some ot the best musicians I have ever heard. These guys are absolutely at the top of their game. If you're into hard rock/jazz/prog/fusion you will be absolutely floored by this CD. Baker does his daddy proud on this one..."

"I FIRST HEARD KOFI BAKER ON HELBORG AND LANES ABSTRACT LOGIC. OH MY. MY DOORS WERE BLOWN OFF. I PURCHASED THIS TO GET SOME MORE OF KOFI. I HAD LISTENED TO THIS CD 10 OR 15 TIMES IN VARIOUS SITUATIONS, I FINALLY HAD IT IN THE CAR AND TRIED ONE MORE TIME AND IT GOT TOSSED OUT THE WINDOW (LITERALLY). SORRY KOFI, NOT EVEN CLOSE TO ABSTRACT LOGIC. YOU SET THE BAR ALL THE WAY UP WHEN YOU TEAMED WITH LANE AND HELLBORG.THIS CD BORED ME! I TITLED THIS REVIEW AS SUCH BECAUSE I REALLY DONT WANT TO OFFEND ANYONE BUT I HAD TO EXPRESS MY OPINION. IF YOU HAVE NOT LISTENED TO ABSTRACT LOGIC, PLEASE DO SO AND LET ME KNOW IF I AM FULL OF $%@*."
One Very Tight Power Trio

"I totally agree with Mark V. As you listen to this record you will think your ears are playing tricks on you. This is a very tight power trio into rock/jazz fusion and the production values are excellent. Brett Garsted is one mean guitar player and extremely versatile. On this record he reminds me of the famous jazz guitarist Larry Coryell while on "Big Sky" he takes a more rock approach, ala Joe Satriani. Buy this CD, you will have no regrets."
