Col. Bruce Hampton, конечно, величина, но нас интересует здесь прежде всего незаурядный гитарист Jimmy Herring, его творчество, как говорится, мы и хотим проследить :rolleyes:
Unbelievable album, December 10, 2004
Reviewer: George Kalantzis "gtrman01" (Pittsburgh, PA)
The musicianship on this album is unreal. Every player is top notch, and the band is incredibly diverse covering styles from funk, fusion, bluegrass to jazz. The first time I heard this album I had to sit down...I was floored.

Review by Steven McDonald
Bruce Hampton, very late of the Hampton Grease Band, has learned to let it all stretch and flow, and, boy, does it flow. This sophomore set is a treat and a half, filled with jazzy grooves that get bluesy and then rocky, only to stand up and toss Bela Fleck out front for a banjo attack on "Too Many Guitars." It's relaxed, smart, fun music with big fat friendly shouter vocals from the Colonel.
the last of the unforgetable unit..., December 21, 1998

I remember dropping my jaw when first listening to this album. I'd seen them many times and was always blown away with their live shows. This ARU features Matt Mundy, a mandolin virtuoso, who quit the band shortly after this album's release...and what a shame. I've never heard a talent quite like him...I did some research and Matt also plays on Bela Fleck's Tales from the Acoustic Planet, Both Sides' The Sounds, and Widespread Panic's Everyday...you can never get enough of Matt Mundy's haunting melodies...
