I really appreciate that with such a large group of musicians the overall sound and experience of listening is really spacious, never cluttered. The lovely recording helps that a lot, and of course the compositional aspects that make it breathe are superb- it gets more and more fun as I listen again and again. Jasper Skydecker

Great, great band, The Engines...this live recording (The Green Mill, Chicago) just hits the sweet spot continuously...
The playing, the improvising, the interplay, the energy and the verve just don't get better than this for me...all Ken Vandermark associates, all quality guaranteed composers.
Lots of exceptional stuff on this label (Dave Rempis' Aerophonic Records) too...check it all out, it's worth your time and effort. John Cratchley

I've been listening to this new release on Driff Records and the music captured here is about as exciting as it gets! Jorrit Dijkstra, Pandelis Karayorgis, Nate McBride, Luther Gray and the explosive Jeb Bishop have produced an album that when it ended, I was literally sad that there wasn't more to listen to. It's THAT good!!! 😎 Rick Mathis
