Industry Reviews
...The collective virtuosity is stunning--like Jaco Pastorius two decades before, Wooten has redefined the bass....the Flecktones manage the difficult task of making intensely complex music accessible and fun....these guys love playing together, and it shows...
Musician (02/01/1997)
...it's really rather spendid, in a kind of self-indulgent and completely mad way....Marvellous.
NME (07/19/1997)
A live performance by Bela Fleck and the Flecktones is a celebration of the joy derived from making complex music that's fun at heart...
