Review by Scott Yanow
The second release by Bass Desires (a quartet consisting of leader/bassist Marc Johnson, drummer Peter Erskine, and the guitars of Bill Frisell and John Scofield) is almost the equal of the first. This advanced unit performs eight group originals that cover a wide variety of moods, from introspective, spacy pieces to ones emphasizing fire and passion.

Crítica de Scott Yanow
El segundo lanzamiento de Bass Desires (un cuarteto formado por el líder/bajista Marc Johnson, el batería Peter Erskine, y las guitarras de Bill Frisell y John Scofield) es casi igual al primero. Esta avanzada unidad interpreta ocho originales del grupo que abarcan una amplia variedad de estados de ánimo, desde piezas introspectivas y espaciadas hasta otras que enfatizan el fuego y la pasión.
