Financial Times[2]

Financial Times reviewer, Mike Hobart, stated "Roney’s beautifully rounded tone and clear sense of purpose is matched by the impressively muscular playing of young saxophonist Ben Solomon; veteran alto saxophonist Gary Bartz beefs up the brass".[2] In JazzTimes, Philip Booth noted "A Place in Time, suggests that the group’s penchant for fruitful compositions, dynamic interplay and bracing solos remains intact. More than half of the set is devoted to originals ... Here’s hoping it won’t take another 15 years for a sequel".[3]

Personnel

gollark: The mostly irrelevant village I live in has had 4G connectivity for a year or so, which is nice. I wish they'd roll that out more rather than overhyping pointless 5G.
gollark: The law is with you as long as few enough people start saying wrong things™ on the internet (or, well, specifically your platform) that people start complaining a lot. Public opinion might not be. The issue with making a new less-moderated version of something is that it inevitably attracts a few people who genuinely care about free speech a lot, and probably a lot who want to say terrible/stupid things somewhere.
gollark: My website is very size-optimized and does a lot of caching.
gollark: I have 34Mbps up, 8Mbps down, which is not ideal but usable.
gollark: Some people don't even have a publicly routable IP.
