Waxed Oop FOR WAXED OOP (Fast 'N' Bulbous):

"A FASCINATING SELECTION OF SONGS FROM THE BEEFHEART SONGBOOK...AND IT'S ALL DONE WITH AN OBVIOUS LOVE OF THE MUSIC AND A SENSE OF DEEP FUN."
review from The Captain Beefheart Radar Station, 5/2009

"HERE IS THE MARRIAGE BETWEEN THE SUN AND THE MOON...Beefheart's compositions seem to take on new hues, perhaps entirely unexpected for the author himself."
All About Jazz Italia, 5/2009

"NUANCED PRECISION AND SHREWD ARRANGEMENTS...inventive instrumental re-interpretations and soulful improvisation. The ensemble's most impressive feat is their ability to excavate the tuneful kernels buried in the labyrinthine tunes. Waxed Oop offers further re-evaluation of the work of one of the Twentieth Century's most misunderstood geniuses, not as an eccentric rock icon, but as a composer of serious merit."
