"Buy this one, "A present for the future" and "Live!" These are the best albums from Frank's catalogue. The freshness and creativity of these albums are uncommon and really exeptional. The music of BNG is light and entertaining and could easily be appreciated by the Jazz neophit. But don't consider this an easy listening album. It is challenging and adventurous, simply Frank could make the most difficult progressions sound very easy and acceptable. His playing here is absolutly marvellous. I treasure this disc because of the enjoyment it gave me from the day I bought it (more or less 15 years ago) since today. I can't get enough of these three albums. With these three Frank definitly entered on my map firmly!!"

Sweeping as it should be!

"Every shred player should be forced to hear this CD. Frank uses a very light tone and plays every note clean as a bell. This CD shows what it means to make every note count and NOT show off. Sure, Gambale plays some very fast solo's in the CD but, they flow with the music, the music is what counts, the solo's just add a little flash. Frank's solo's are so flowing even with the very complex chord changes it makes most shred players sound like hacks.



To be simple about it, this CD is speed picking with class!"
