An excellent trio outing with Abercrombie, inventive bassist Marc Johnson, and careening drummer Peter Erskine. The trio sometimes unite for piercing interpretations as on "Stella By Starlight," and other times collide and interact on furious rhythm dialogues and extended improvisations. ~ Ron Wynn

Down Beat (10/89, p.30) - 4 Stars - Very Good - "...picks up where 1986's CURRENT EVENTS left off....Abercrombies's synthesizer helps to keep this music fresh....These guys like to swing, playing a delicate yet fiery, intimate yet spacious brand of trio jazz..."
