"The record is incredible, some of the best recorded Haynes!" -- Jazz Times by Chick Corea (Nov-98)
Reviews:
"…his drumming is crisp and provocative - a hot poker wedged in the backs of his players." -- Los Angeles New Times by Kirk Silsbee
"There's hardly a beat [on the album] where Haynes doesn't reach for something he hasn't heard before." -- Down Beat by Ted Panken
"Haynes earns his Praise." -- Aspen Times
"[Praise is] a smart combination of artists and material, all powered by its leader's cunningly off-kilter play. Haynes constantly surprises with strong beat play, amazing polyrhythms, cymbal combinations and accents worthy of highlight-film status." -- Los Angeles Weekly by Bill Kohlhaase
"Praise is an outstanding five-star jazz release from one of music's most creative and refreshing people. This is highly recommended." -- Jazz Online
"Haynes has been leading his own groups for some 40 years now. However, last year's Praise (Dreyfus Jazz) was the drummer's finest hour in the driver's seat." -- Time Out New York by K. Leander Williams |
