"Every piece is like walking through a new, unexpected door... Includes
music by Hendrix, Zappa, Nino Rota and Jack Bruce", says the record
company...
Music critics of LA Weekly voted "The Snake Music" one of ten best recordings of 1994.
"When Nauseef and Tadic invite other players into their music, they coil and circle around them, discreetly establishing the terms upon which the improvisation will develop, shaping the atmospheres. It's a subtle manoeuvering - snakes are never bombastic -and suddenly a musician as strong minded as, say, Jack Bruce is singing and playing a little differently."*
"Essentially, The Snake Music coils back on itself, to reveal - for those who do care to hear - the interconectedness of things..."*
