Yes yes. It's very nice. The only solo McEntire material available, so if you're after that stuff, go get it. Very Tortoise-sounding throughout. I think they played the music while the movie was going, or something like that. Mellow. Reverberant. Understated grooves aplenty. I would say it's for the hardcore Tortoise fans only, really. Otherwise, go get yourself some Tortoise instead. I wrote a review of this for resonance magazine at www.resonancemag.com, but their web site is hopelessly behind. -Nils
