CD "You think about somebody like Miles Davis or John Coltrane, people who learned everything about jazz and then digested it and it came out a new way. I think Tony's very similar, he's that kind of figure in the banjo world. Tony was ahead of his time. . . . My springboard was Tony Trischka, and without Tony, none of what's happened with my music would have happened." --Bela Fleck "When I first saw Tony play many years ago, I was instantly mesmerized -- not because of his technical prowess or innovative style, but because of his willingness to journey into scary, unpredictable territory. This album combines some of that element, almost like the joyous darkness of klezmer, with a modern tightness and brightness. The result is energized and crisp; if many of the sounds that I put into my stereo seem to remain dormant, sitting inside the speakers, this is a sound that actually makes it out into the middle of the room where I am standing." --Mike Gordon, Phish
