Press Reviews Self-termed "LOUD FOLK" by thee "mainman", Marcos Alves, there's some WAY-KEW Lelectric-oriented folk music on this (first) full-length CD (in from Birdcage Records). Th 'lectricity coursing through their music (I'm not talkin' 'bout AC/DC, either) will have yer' blood PUMPING! These boys have the potential to start another 60's revo-movement...high-quality lyrical style, & a DRIVEN playing that just DEMANDS to be played LOUD! We DO wanna'hear MORE from "Ed's Too Short", I'll TELL ya'. Gets a MOST HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for those with (even the slightest) orientation towards electric folkin'. -IMPROVIJAZZATION NATION by Rotcod Zzaj
