"...if you don't yet know Tribal Tech, this is a good way to listen to a sample of their production. Then on the next days you'll find your fingertips automatically typing to order on line the other records; you can be sure that on the other records all of the tracks will be on the same level, if not better, of this "sample"! (Only one exception-warning: be careful with "Thick", give it a listen first, since it is basically improvised unorganized music and you might be disappointed)."

Fusion 101

"A greatest hits collection, Primal Tracks contains selections from Tribal Tech's first 4 albums, and serves as a good starting point for new listeners. The one complaint is the usual one for a greatest hits disc - that they didn't include several of my favorite songs. Nonetheless, the collection is representative of Tribal Tech's early output, and provides precedent for their future direction (which has grown more improvisational and less "written"). This disc also has value in that it contains tracks from Tribal Tech's discontinued catalog, all of which are difficult to find elsewhere. Every tune here is a treasure; harmonically rich and ceaselessly inventive. This one should whet your appetite for more."

Henderson and Willis Do It Again

"These guys can play. Inspite of the fact that the audience for this type of music seems to be shrinking, the strength of their playing and compostitions continues to grow. They are capable of crossing many lines and that's exactly what they do on this CD. It wreaks of fusion but soars with a freshness very few artists can generate. Buy it."
