“Diese Sessions waren Triumphe des Klangs, des Teamworks und von freudiger Musikalität. Genieße die Timbres der Instrumente und Stimmen: Das Summen von Harrys Tenor, das verführerische Kratzen von Eddies Stimme, die weiche Textur von Becky, das cellogleiche Magenta von Joels Bass, Joes lichtdurchlässige Akkorde, den anschwellenden Ozean aus Chucks Snare-Drums. Weniger ist hier mehr, wenn das Sextett in lebhafter Improvisation von bekannten, doch überraschend belohnenden Melodien schwelgt.“ Michael Steinman, Englischprofessor am Nassau Community College; hin und wieder schreibt er für Mississippi Rag, Cadence, All About Jazz und Jazz Improv.

"These sessions were a triumph of sounds, of teamwork, of joyous musicality. Savor the gratifying timbres of instrument and voice: the croon of Harry’s tenor, the seductive rasp of Eddie’s voice, the creamy texture of Becky’s, the cellolike magenta of Joel’s bass, Joe’s translucent chords, the ocean swell of Chuck’s snare-drum rolls. Here, Loesser is More, as this sextet revels in buoyant improvising on familiar but surprisingly rewarding melodies.” Michael Steinman,occasionally, Professor of English at Nassau Community College; now and again, he writes for The Mississippi Rag, Cadence, All About Jazz, and Jazz Improv.
