"90 minutes and 28 tracks, all conceived with pure inspiration, from writing to the arrangements, performance and production. This quintet (occasionally augmented by a violinist) touches on folk, psychedelia, new age, blues, jazz, and classical. They're masters of both acoustic and electric instruments. Their guitar work is superb. They can be funny, melancholy, or put across tons of emotion on their instrumentals, both of the lushly complex and stripped down variety." - Option Magazine
