Notes
„After their last album “3 on the moon” we already thought that an increase would not be possible. However, it is.” • (Karlsruher Kurier)

„For sure the best jazz-rock project in our degrees of latitude, on international standard and live even more entertaining because they are able to combine the high level of the music with good entertainment. “Special Treatment“ catapults the Jazz Pistols, quite finally, to the top europeans of the genre jazz rock - and the three definitly deserved it.”
• (drums & percussion: PLATTE DES MONATS)

„As great musicians they quite simply seem to outgrow in their instruments themselves. Every composition, up to Wayne Shorter “Palladium”, is an audible stretching challenge for them, every act of the spontaneity the purest joy.” • (Jazzpodium)

„The Jazz Pistols shoot sharply on their third record. However, the much positivity emitting playing joy likewise remains always perceptible in every position, also the sense for absorbing songs and song construction. This way the concept of fusion is great fun.” • (Jazzthing)

„On the third album of the formation can be foud wonderful ballads, a very special and highly intelligent cover version of Wayne Shorter “Palladium” (from the Weather Report album “Heavy Weather”) - and, nevertheless, the music stays funky and open. This band has done a leap forwards.” • (Gitarre&Bass)

„Athletic strength and cracking energy are important qualities in the play of the Jazz Pistols. However, the group feeling of the trio which is tuned almost quite telepathic on each other is even more decisively. At every moment one feels the fun in the teamwork, in itself-add, joining in, react to each other. Also with their third album they still not used up their gun-powder for a long time.” • (Mannheimer Morgen)
