"Jackets XL offers not only a seamless, sophisticated, kaleidoscopic jazz collaboration, and it also reveals Yellowjackets' musical evolution through taste, variety, imagination, and genuine surprise. They welcome listeners into their party as participants, not merely as observers. Enjoy".

"Just as we've come to expect from the Yellow Jackets this music is highly energetic, filled with grooves, a few comic turns, and joyous moments. Mintzer claims that it was like putting a whole new set of clothes on. Said another way, it's like that favorite painting which takes on a whole new quality with a new frame that allows the viewer to focus even more clearly on the art. That's what the WDR Big Band does. They frame the band's sound, making it even more newly distinctive and brighter".

"It seems inevitable that these two ensembles would meet up: Longtime Yellowjackets saxophonist/EWI player Bob Mintzer has been conductor of the large ensemble for the past four years. Still, adapting the dexterous fusion quartet's repertoire from the past 40 years to the tightly scripted big band took some doing".
