<p>"It turned out to be very cool CD. With the variety of genre's and sounds on this disc I found it to be a really cool mix. A pleasure to listen to a disc and not get bored. A different sound at every turn. The guys on this disc all share a common thread in that we did this as a part of <a href="http://www.tomhess.net/MusicCareer.aspx">Tom Hess's Music Career's Mentoring Program (MCMP)</a>. We have shared some great experiences over the last year and I have made some friends that I hope to continue to be in touch with for a lifetime."</p>
