Press Reviews "From the banjo-meets-Bruford tribal groove of "Futureboy" to the atmospheric sonic landscapes of "Girl of a Thousand Days," E. Doctor Smith treads a musical road less traveled. His intrepid ensemble's acid jazz explorations wander into every world musicalnook and cranny, making this collection a trip well worth taking." -Stephen Bray, Producer
