“Confident, inventive and involving as his own solos are, perhaps the most impressive aspect of this set is McAll’s writing. His compositions combine memorable melodies and rhythmic motifs, but best of all is his use of harmony”. ****1/2 Adrian Jackson, Rhythms Magazine

REVIEWS: "This album is a triumph, impossible not to like. There is an engaging directness and vitality in McAlls work, at once sophisticated yet guileless. His bright, chunky tunes are remarkably buoyant, at times romantic, instantly hummable. McAlls brilliance is everywhere, drawing beautiful voicings out of the horns and his own piano: his sextet sounds orchestral."
Shane Nichols,The Australian Financial Review
"Rather than tentatively nibbling at the Big Apple, pianist Barney McAll has bitten into the core. Dancing around all these fine players is McAlls piano, always an enlivening influ-ence, imbued with authority and great logic, as compelling as a finely honed short story".
