“Even in a jazz world rammed with guitar-fast double-bassists, McBride is exceptional - his sound is crystal clear throughout the range, his lines springy and light. Add to that a band including saxophonist Steve Nelson and vibraphone newcomer Warren Wolf Jr, and you have a recipe for the kind of contemporary-straight ahead set that gets old-school jazzers misty-eyed but invites converts, too.” (The Guardian)
