about

"Instrumental music is an afterthought for many, but for serious practitioners of the genre, instrumentals offer the sonic equivalent of cinematography. Davis' luminous Acme Rocket Quartet must know that; it goes widescreen on this new 13-track disc, covering enough bases here to make up an audio film festival. Guitarist Roger Kunkel's many voices drive the band--e.g., Memphis rhythmic cool on "Tracksuit Suite," lyrical Ennio Morricone baritone lines on "Lusitania" and Beefheartian skronk on the loping "Spoke French." Trumpeter John Killebrew occasionally gets a little too brassy, but most of his fluid lines are spot-on, and bassist Dave Thompson and drummer Rusi Gustafson provide solid grooves, with band members adding various keyboard parts for texture. All in all, it's solid cinema, sans visuals." - Sacramento News & Review
