MAMA Records (MAA 1030)“Since the late 1950’s Bob Florence has been on an unparalleled musical journey and we as listeners have been fortunate enough to go along for the ride. And what an incredible ride it is. He is a true artist in every sense of the word because he is never content to stay on one place. He continues to experiment with all areas of musical expression and in doing so has created some of the most outstanding works of the modern big band era.”
-- Ken Poston
