Barney McAll is a musical conjurer of the highest order
-CMJ WEBSITE REVIEW
There was a virtual absence of familiar bop riffs, extended bop harmonies or precise bop rhythms. Instead, Rosenwinkel's pieces offered turbulent, thickly textured waves of sound, mostly produced by Barney McAll's impassioned keyboard work.

Big Black Jet were the finest purveyors of vanish core in history
-GREG MOORHOUSE
Barney is a special piano player with that certain heart and touch, so he has great possibilities. He's a genuine musician, not just a skilled artist. There's a certain touch that I'm talking about. It's hard to explain, but he has that"
BILLY HARPER
Using space and simplicity, Barney McAll conjures mighty music
KEN MICALLEF
McAll manages to intelligently integrate pop elements into his music and deserves much wider attention.
- LOS ANGELES TIMES
McAll displays an immediate feel for each pattern and the stamina to sustain them without sounding automatic. McAll also

McAll demonstrating throughout that he is a talented composer as
well as gifted keyboardist"
- ROLLING STONE MAGAZINE
The revelation of the evening is pianist Barney McAll. Playing beneath the
liquid passages of (Dewey) Redman, McAll carefully kneaded clusters of notes from his hands that I found devastating. He explored ideas with a dramatic
flourish that had the audience in raptures"
