"Peter Erskine has done loads of work with the uber producer/arranger/composer Vince Mendoza. They've collaborated on some of my favourite jazz CDs - More or less all of Vince's solo stuff, Jimmy Haslip's "ARC" and Joni Mitchell's "Both Sides Now" so I was wondering how come Vince hadn't worked on any of Peter's albums?
Then I learned about this one browsing amazon.com a few weeks ago, while trying to see if Vince has anything new out. I ordered it without even listening to the sound samples and this album is a testament to the fact that good music never dates. This album was released NINETEEN years ago and it sounds as fresh as if it came out last month! It features some of my biggest heroes - Pete and Vince themselves (of course), with John Abercrombie, Joe Lovano and Bob Mintzer. Brilliant from beginning to end, I have no complaints, thank you amazon.com!"

"Started listening to this CD again after some years - its still as vital and intriguing as I recall the first time - Definitely stands the test of time - outstanding."

"Great CD! I have owned this CD for 12 years. Two things to listen for: The variety of the cuts is amazing. It really keeps you suprised. Second, the intensity of Erskins music grabs you. I am not tired of it after 12 years."
