"Everybody talks about the jazz tradition, but FMRJE does something about it.   This evolving cast of improvisers takes its inspiration from no single time and place in the jazz continuum --- but from the relentless searching of John Coltrane, the soaring vision of Jimmy Lyons, the focussed passion of Archie Shepp, the hidden call of music to come, and other sources both ancient and articulate.  The result is the creation of music that always is relevant in the now."  (Stu Vandermark).
