"Being a huge fan of Kollman and Cosmosquad lead me to this. Wow. This reminds me a bunch of Jeff Becks older stuff, but with more of a solid groove to it. Too much to say about it, it's solid all the way through with absolutely amazing recording quality. I've got an audiophile system in my vehicle and this disc sounds incredible and spacious. The last track 'Into the Floyd' is really cool, and it's funny to hear Kollman trying to restrain himself. That's not meant as any kind of negative Jeff. You, Gilmour, Govan and May are my favorites EVER!"

"I was surprised that I loved every song on the CD - it was a new sound with a throwback feel. I would recommend it to anyone for their CD collection. It was great and I can't wait for the next release."

"Chad Smith's Bombastic Meatbats are all that & more. This CD kills with some heavy hittin' instrumental funk rock. It's the best way I can describe it. I actually got to see this band "live" at NAMM 2010 in Anaheim as part of the Sabian Live concert and they tore the roof off. Buy this disc. Great players all around. A +++

Don't Judge A Book...

"Silly band name. Drummer leading a band. Half-hearted cover. Even though I know better, I almost judged a book by the cover..glad I put preconceptions aside and listened to it! If you like Jeff Beck's 'Blow By Blow' or 'There And Back', this will hit you right in your wheelhouse. I fear calling it "Jazz-Fusion" cause I know that's a bad word to lots of folks, but this is a classic addition to the fusion cannon. This will get played to death for years to come in my household!"

"I really enjoyed this cd when I got it. With the silly sounding song titles, I wondered how serious it would be. But it really suprised me.Im not as big a fan of instumental cds as I used to be. Now Ill only buy stuff like Jeff Beck, Steve Hunter, Jan Ackerman. Most instumentals are ussually alot of " widdly, widlly" stuff. To much speed, and not enough feel. This reminds me of Wired and Blow by Blow era Beck.
Chad Smith has got to be the busiest man in rock music. Hes on everthing!!I would highly recomend this cd."
