harn Feb 13 2016 at 3:43 AM	Just reading on Cuong Vu’s Facebook page about this album due in the next month or so. I’m really looking forward to hearing this, having heard his trio, it has lots of potential.

sunship Sep 13 2016 at 9:58 AM	Yes, it is quite the album. Love it. Listen to "Telescope".

But what I heard was Cuong and Pat talking to each other. Not like in a "Battle of the Bands" It was a true conversation of phrases with crackling energy, heart, and a back and forth that I found both mesmerizing and intense. We are so fortunate to be around to follow Pat on his always changing musical journey. I can’t wait to hear what will be next!!
franksexton May 17 2016 at 8:37 AM	did I say I like it a lot ?
yossarian May 14 2016 at 9:20 AM	Have heard great things about this... can’t wait to get it.
franksexton May 13 2016 at 9:01 AM	I just got this yesterday and have listened to the album through twice. I like it a lot , I enjoyed reading the liner notes from both Cuong and Pat . The record really does have the feel of "Pat meets Cuong". I like it a lot it, has an experimental fusion feel to it. If you like this I suggest Cuong’s album "It’s Mostly Residual" , which he recorded with Bill Frisell

There are a few songs that I like a lot, and even the more challenging ones have become more enjoyable over time. I know there are many sides to Pat, and some I prefer more than others. Wondering what others think?

harn May 09 2016 at 2:01 PM	I was actually expecting it to be more challenging! I’ve only listened to it twice so far but I found it pretty accessible compared to some other things by Cuong Vu. I really like it though, some great atmospheres and as always I love Pats choices of guitar sounds.
terryhickmott May 06 2016 at 11:41 AM	I’ve received my CD today here in the UK. All I can say is that the music is ’challenging’. I’m looking forward to other opinions.
mountain Apr 01 2016 at 11:35 PM	ITunes has one song from this coming release available to listen to. Let’s Get Back.
mountain Apr 01 2016 at 11:24 PM	The Vu release should be good. Check out Logan Richardson Shift. Metheny is the band’s guitarist. It’s gotta nice vibe.
