Great music, period; not just great jazz, great MUSIC!

"These guys remain difficult to classify; their sound is unique and I've seen people turned on to jazz by hearing them play. This album is the best yet and demonstrates their ability to craft fantastic pieces of art. My favorites are the Ethopian pop tunes; particularly Musicawi Silt, which never fails to hypnotize me. While Across the Omniverse is a touch more accessible, I think this ought to be everyone's first E/O album."
"More Beautiful" IS!

"The Either Orchestra, under the leadership of Russ Gershon, has put together a driving, happy CD which will bring great pleasure to big band and latin fans alike. Comfortable in a wide range of styles, The E/O moves easily from African based music to jazz to funk. Great listening fun. A "MUST HAVE" CD!"
