No Fast Food’s
al dente renderings of my originals present a democratic
terrain of swinging intensity, acoustic muscularity & transparent sensitivity.
Gentlemen, thank you for bringing it, once again.

“A brilliant recording — in both music and sound.
Clearly, one of the more promising trio debuts of the past twenty-five years.
Liebman revels as a NFF collaborator and Gress is simply the
master of (re-)compositional insight.”
