“From jazz to funk and well beyond, the Boston Horns have it goin' on!”
All About Jazz
“...Boston Horns lay down a classic sound that is the pillar of all things good and groovy in today's onslaught of fusion.”
JR Richards - Jambase
“…a band that rides in the pocket alongside such new-jack acid-jazzers as Karl Denson, Galactic and their brassy brethren. But the roots of the Boston Horns go back to the soul-jazz of the late '60s and the proto-funk of the Crusaders, Tower of Power and Maceo Parker.”
