Press Quotes
"As a package, Bells and Prophecy make for a highly intense, utterly engaging, and even awe-inspiring listen." - Thom Jurek, All Music Guide
"...tenorman Albert Ayler has probably, next to Coltrane and Cecil Taylor, held the most sway on the direction of improvisation from a "thematic" or ˜phrase-based" approach to that of a purely sonic one." - Clifford Allen, All About Jazz
