"Wilkinson is a saxophonist
whose work is on a par with Charles Gayle, David Ware, Peter
Brötzmann or any of the other heavyweight reedmen who are still
playing hard and free. I can think of many young American
conservatives who would do well to have their heads shoved deep into
the bell of his baritone for a season or two." Byron Coley
FORCED EXPOSURE
"An essential record. Very
fine; an outstanding record that yields consistent pleasure and
demands a place in any comprehensive collection." THE PENGUIN
GUIDE TO JAZZ ON LP, CD & CASSETTE
"Involvement and intensity,
invention and insurrection.....manna from heaven.....Superb." Ben
Watson HIFI NEWS & RECORD REVIEW
"Spontaneous music of a
scorching and unrelenting intensity.....conversational music of the
most intuitive eloquence.....unquenchable energy.....There probably

convenient endearment, it's close enough." John Fordham THE GUARDIAN
"They left the audience in a
state of shock. Whiteheat improvisation, full throttle free jazz out

more discord, more evil heat.....simultaneous musicality and
cathartic excess.....we are talking the essence of what makes jazz
great here." Ben Watson THE WIRE
