"This project unites a new voice in Jazz Quartet singing, whose ideas are fresh and plans are set. The project is well framed by excellent liner notes provided by New York City Music writer James Gavin, whose own Deep in a Dream remains the definitive cultural commentary on the life of trumpeter Chet Baker. If all musical projects could be this well programmed -".

"If this disc featured just the quartet, it would be sensational. The addition of the icons, showcased once each (with Murphy provided wider presence) and all in remarkably fine form, escalates it from valuable to priceless, from piquant to landmark".

"Does the world really need another jazz vocal quartet? After listening to this effervescent album, in which some of the hippest vocalists in jazz history join a younger generation of scat-singers to reimagine the tight harmonies and witty vocalese wordplay epitomized by Lambert, Hendricks & Ross, the answer is a resounding "Hell yes!"".
