Eric Vloeimans - trumpet | John Taylor - Piano | Marc Johnson - bass | Joey Baron - drums
Hein Van de Geyn: “Eric Vloeimans and Challenge have been Together since the label started in 1994. I’ve always had a soft spot for Eric because of his individuality, great sound, spontaneity and adventurous approach to music. You could never pigeonhole Eric; he’s too inside to be an outside player, and too outside to be in. Eric just plays music in the most open-minded way. Good compositions, fine band, good vibes, great expression and connection to the public, that’s how Eric has always struck me."
"[In 1998 Eric was] on the verge of becoming an important European player. To underline this, and to give Eric the exposure he deserves, we came up with the idea of recording him and his music with a truly international quartet. And what a band! British pianist John Taylor might be one of the most important improvisers of our time, great touch, idea’s, rhythm; breathtaking. Marc Johnson doesn’t need to be introduced. Since his collaboration with Bill Evans at the end of the 70’s, Marc has really belonged to that elite group of bass players that is way up there. Joey Baron is a magician. No words can describe his fantastic intuition, his liveliness or his quickness of response. To hear this band play with Eric is a wonderful experience, with Eric full of adventure, contrast, beauty and exaltation." - Hein Van de Geyn October 14, 1998 (in linernotes of 'Bitches and Fairy Tales')

PRESS REVIEWS
"Pianist Taylor agiert sehr ausgereift, gelegentlich in perlend-flüssiger Art und Weise, der Bass erklingt volltönend, die Soli Marc Johnsons überzeugen durch Klarheit und Stringenz, und beim Schlagzeug beeindruckt Joey Barons differenziertes und spannungsreiches Spiel." Horst-Dieter Stiefelmaier Jazzpodium december 2010
"Pianist Taylor handelt zeer volwassen, soms sprankelend, op een vloeiende manier, de bas klinkt resonant, de solo's van Marc Johnson overtuigen met duidelijkheid en nauwgezetheid, en ben zeer onder de indruk van het verfijnde en opwindende spel van de drummer Joey Barons." Horst-Dieter Stiefelmaier Jazzpodium December 2010
"Pianist Taylor acts very mature, sometimes sparkling in a smooth manner, the bass sounds resonant, the solos from Marc Johnson persuade with clarity and precision, and I am very impressed by the sophisticated and exciting playing of the drummer Joey Baron."
