"My favorite David Grisman CD (so far). It stayed in my cd player for at least 2 weeks upon purchase, and is still a frequent listen. Every song is beautiful arranged and perfectly played. All of the musicians are just amazing. You can listen to this at any time of day or night and its just as good. Less bluegrass than his other works. Really the DGQ playing straight up latin jazz. Lots of flute and mandolin unison melodies. Crazy percussion. Blindingly fast solos. Just Awesome. Even people that don't like jazz or acoustic music like this one."
Dawanova is DGQ's Perfection

"All the David Grisman Quintet's C.D.s are good and enjoyable, but with this one, they finally achieved perfection. Every song is one you want to listen to again and again and each time you do, you hear a note or a run that you never heard before. The addition of Matt Eakle and his flute was one of the best things David Grisman did for his music. Eakle gives the exactly right sound for blend and offset of the stringed instruments. Whoever you are and whatever kind of music you like, you cannot listen to this C.D. and not thoroughly enjoy it."
