“An unbelievably good time...pure perfection.”
-- Jonathan Takiff, Philadelphia Daily News

“…impeccably recorded and impressively played.”
-- Glenn Whipp, L.A. Daily News

“A fine set…Bromberg gives (these great covers) remarkable new life.”
-- Jack Garner, Rochester Democrat-Chronicle

“...a funky, swinging affair with plenty of edge and the raw spontaneity of a classic blowing session among artists with chops, verve, and nothing to prove.”
-- Siddartha Mitter, Boston Globe

"...He’s got contemporary jazz heavyweights including saxophonists Boney James and Kirk Whalum, trumpeter Rick Braun, and pianists George Duke and sitting in with him, along with drum god Vinnie Colaiuta and, on one track, guitar legend Lee Ritenour. It’s an impressive lineup, but even more impressive is the music itself."
