Lew Herman writes that Actual Proof's CD is "imaginative, playful, lively and inventive."... "Edgy opener 'The Ion' sets the pace, while 'Mongo' surprises with changing tempos and Latinesque tone. There's piano-playing elegance on "Island" while there's even a Grover Washington soundalike on 'The Ride'."

Nice sounds coming from your way. Always good to hear new music from folks in the neighborhood. Good luck with your CD release party. Cheers - The Menders
Thanks for the add, guys. You are funky as hell. Not too hip on the name "paradigm shift," but I'm sure the album kills. Good luck at the cd release. peace-kev
