"Drummer Taru Alexander celebrates the music of his father, the late saxophonist Roland Alexander, with a splendid quartet that makes late-'60s post-bop sound fresh and true. "

“All coalesce as hard-hitting and positively raw-sounding, a fitting tribute to jazz elders.”

“While these musicians are honoring pieces composed fifty or more years ago, they play throughout with unbridled energy, unleashing a youthful swagger that breathes new life into these classic compositions. This is one white hot session.”
