“… John Esposito and A Book of Five Rings’s miraculous new two-disc set disc, Vulcan..a relentlessly adventuresome…set of never less-than-intriguing music… an instant classic. It just is—a gift fallen from the stars.  Magnificent, entirely on its own terms.”   Michael Eck – Chronogram

“… the music has an ethereal quality, free-ish and floating yet still focused and somehow tight… the thoughtful ensemble writing… stands out throughout… consistently fascinating and engaging. Another gem from John Esposito and his great Sunjump label all-stars.”
Bruce Lee Gallanter, DMG
