"This cd is very enjoyable, Victor Wooten and Steve Bailey show thier talent with original music played with leading bass and create a very original kind of music that can liked among jazz listeners. While Vic Wooten is probably one of the best bass players of today, mostly because of his technique, this is not a Wooten showcase of his wonderful playing abilits, in this cd Vic plays slow melodies or low grooves unlike his solo cds where his shows off his technique. This cd is very enjoyable specially for bass players or those who wants to experience bass guitar as a leading instrument in jazz fusion music.-Cirus"

"I own the Bass Extremes Video so, I knew these 2 could play but, I was NOT expecting the musicality of this album. My Non-Bass playing freinds enjoy the music for the songs. If you want to listen to GREAT technique, Buy both of the Bass Extremes CD's (I did) Steve and Victor compliment each other and the writing is fantastic. I rated this as low as 5 starts because there is no higher grade. Bass players,GET THIS CD!!!!"
BASSically, it's the best

"This cd is simply the best electric bass centered recording I've ever heard. It's very well recorded. The music hooks you with grooving melodies. They pay homage to a past great with playful melodic "cameos" from Jaco. The one song with lyrics is wonderfully written and well sung. Don't hesitate and buy it."
