"This album is absolutly splendid. It is one of the best example of west coast jazz. It is a who's who in terms of west coast jazz musicians. Rosolino shines here as he always did. And what about Kamuca? He 's one of the most underrated sax player in the whole history of jazz music. This is not one of those snob west coast jazz records so flat and unemotional. This album has plenty of drive and fire but it is also genuine, tender and funny . It is untouchable. It is pure gold. No matter what."

"It's hard to argue with an ensemble that includes Kamuca, Conte Candoli, Rosolino, and the rest. The arrangements are smooth and peppy. The disk sounds fine. A good example of the genre."
