"Fields' music will appeal to those who feel--as this critic does--that Eric Dolphy's 'Out to Lunch' was one of the seminal recordings of the '60s. That disc also sounds like a textbook for Fields and his quintet. Running with Scissors made me want to stick a microscope to my ear to catch all the nuances played by Fields and his group." - Steve Goldstein, Midwest Jazz Magazine
"When he does solo, Fields is inventive and accomplished and his
instrument enjoys a wonderful sense of depth in the recording.
Most of all, the compositions fit the group--Fields is a thoughtful
and probing composer, again often bring to mind the late Eric
Dolphy in his choice of wide intervals and corduroy rhythms."
