Wow.
I just listened to "Bridge to Presage" twice, and now I'm listening to it again.
This is turing out to be be one of those special CDs that you put on 'repeat', and let it do just that.
It make me miss Grover Washington Jr. for a minute, but then I have to be grateful that here I am,
in a good mood, sipping tea (really, real tea, Earl Gray), and digging this sound.
It sound ...s like these guys are here to play music to play music, not to work music to have music pay.
But of course I hope it does, does pay off. It has for me.

ONNOFFON – Reviewed by Graven Nor (11/19/2004)
With a dazzling burst of emotion, this power trio with artist styles ranging from David Sanborn and Santana to Phish, can relax you as well as excite. Brilliantly formed compositions of pr ...ogressive jazz, rock and new age, leaves the listener entertained and amazed.
In listening to “Opus”, I was delighted with the crisp tones of the gentle waves of crashing guitar caressed with the arrangements of sea-born rhythms. “Opus” is totally peaceful in its delivery and structure. The next song “The Gift Must Always Move” is a continuation of “Opus” in its desire to stand still amongst the aquatic serene. Although these two tracks are instrumental, together they remind me of the surreal epic of “Porcelina of The Vast Oceans” by the Smashing Pumpkins, in the sense of texture and the underwater atmosphere.
While listening to “Weekend in Montreal”, I couldn’t help to think that this track must be telling a story of an argument that goes back and forth, the aggression driven by one side. Then, being reminded by the title, I looked at this track in another way. To me, this track conveys a weekend of two lovers as their weekend climaxes and falls, and then levels out to a great balance. I may be wrong, but this song really had my imagination running wild. A completely emotionally-driven song with its ups and downs, as music should be.
“Shadowglass” is an artistic ponder... |

Hey, I just listened to the songs on your page there. I must say, that while I'm no jazz conaisseur, I really liked what I heard!
I really liked Mardi Gras and Weekend In Montreal there. I also thought that opus was quite good, albeit different. There was some good guitar playing in that one!
