"Having worked with the likes of the Pharoah Sanders Quartet and Kamasi Washington the musical fit between Los Angeles native Dwight Trible and Manchester's Gondwana Records should be self- evident. This album was conceived as a combination of joint favourites and spiritual jazz classics chosen by Trible and Gondwana label boss Matthew Halsall, after a couple of chance festival encounters and live guest spots. The band includes not only Halsall's own beautiful trumpet playing, but also several of Halsall's trusted musical fellow travellers (...) such as Taz Modi on piano, Rachel Gladwin on harp and the near ever-present Gavin Barras on bass ... The dominant feature of this album (...) is the Trible voice - an attractive mixture of Leon Thomas in his work with Pharoah Sanders or early Flying Dutchman solo era, foregoing the yodelling and adding, perhaps, a touch more warm Gregory Porter baritone. It's a voice to luxuriate in, two parts as if receiving visions, onepartcompassionate and emotional, as it weaves through the heartfelt collection of standards and covers".

"He's most comfortable in the spiritual zone defined by Leon Thomas and Pharoah Sanders, which is why these eight modal jazz covers, recorded with Mancunian trumpeter and bandleader Matthew Halsall, fit Trible like a glove".

"Den amerikanske sanger Dwight Trible (...) er bl.a. blevet sammenlignet med Leon Thomas og Andy Bey. Flere genkender ham sandsynligvis også fra Kamasi Washingtons The Epic ... På dette album er han sammen med den engelske trompetist Matthew Halsall, der [også] (...) er stærkt inspirereret af 60'ernes spirituelle jazz ... [De] spiller en række jazz- og soul-numre, hvor spiritualiteten er dyb og inderlig. Donny Hathaway's Tryin' Times, Nina Simone-klassikeren Feeling good og Cole Porter's I love Paris er på listen. Favoritterne er dog den nøgne Black is the color of my true love's hair og John Coltrane's Dear Lord, som Trible har skrevet tekst til".

"Thrilling Anglo-American spiritual jazz summit: Like [Leon] Thomas before him, Trible honed his craft under the tutelage of spiritual jazz guru Pharoah Sanders, whom he still performs with. Here, Trible join forces with the noted Manchester trumpeter, Matthew Halsall, in a collaboration that resulted from their chance meeting at a South African jazz festival back in 2005. Sympathetically accompanied by Halsall's band, Trible presents a disparate mix of material, putting his unmistakable stamp on songs that range from pop classics to jazz standards and gospel hymnals. His gorgeous reworkings of Burt Bacharach & Hal David's What The World Needs Now and Donny Hathaway & Leroy Hutson's Tryin' Times are stunning".
