All About Jazz
McCarthy and crew turn the heat up once again demonstrating quite well why Afro Bop Alliance continues to be a moving force in jazz and Angel Eyes, is another reason why.

FAME
McCarthy's work is superlative every moment of Angel Eyes.
Mark S. Tucker
Owen Cordle
The “Bop” in the band’s name can be best described as hard bop in the Jazz Messengers vein- forthright and hard-hitting with a certain swagger…. McCarthy and company delight in the music and are emotionally invested in each note and beat.
