"I am not a ska fan, heck I don't even know what the word means but I love this album. As a musician myself, I was in awe of the talent and polished arrangements of Eastern Standard Time's covers and orignals. I caught myself whistling the melodies. "Richard Bruce" is my favorite track, but the whole album keeps your toes tappin' and wishin' a CD could hold more than 72 minutes. What you hear on this album more than anything is that this is a band. There are no slackers in this group. You don't hear the prevailing soloing of one lead musician like most groups today, but a confident blend of everyone's talent. Although you could buy the CD here, and I am sure EST would appreciate it, find out where these guys play and see them live. I bet they are even better in person. I know I will."
Listen over and over and over

"E.S.T. reminds me of a twisted Big Band Music. I listen to them over and over and just can't get enough. What comes to mind is the animated Bear named Baloo in the Jungle Book when he is starting to dance to the Monkey song. His comment " Man, what a groovy beat!""
DC's rockinest second-wave cats--must have!

"This CD definitely had me tappin my hooves to the swingin beats. Good stuff, and they put on an awesome live show. Definitely the recent best of DC's second wave ska groups."
