"The Gibbs Orchestra - 24 pieces strong, including the leader on piano and trombone - has a contemporary funk base, a stratospheric, horn-fired belly, and a multi-guitar head that searches for dark clouds. Billy Martin, Bob Moses, and Ben Wittman provide the rhythms. Stoking the furnace are such notable horn players as saxophonists Lou Marini, Bob Mintzer; trumpeters Lew Soloff, Earl Gardner, Allan Rubin; French hornist John Clark; and trombonists Dave Bargeron and Dave Taylor. Guitarists John Scofield, Bill Frisell, Kevin Eubanks, Duke Levine, and Dave Fiuczynski, bass guitarist Kai Eckhart, and keyboardists Brad Hatfield and Dave Bristow provide the rawer, electric edge.Gibbs certainly has a unique approach, mixing many different jazz, ethnic, and rock elements into a seamless whole, his band loaded with talent and his orchestrations thickly settled. This album is not for everybody, particularly not for jazz purists, but some big music is no doubt present, and roaring." (Allmusic).
