“Dave Stapleton knows how to shape a 21st-century modern-jazz unit”. INDEPENDENT
“Carefully arranged, well-crafted albums such as this often fall short on fire and heat, but Between The Lines has plenty of both, and Stapleton’s arrangements play to the individual strengths of his colleagues. Highly recommended”. ALL ABOUT JAZZ
“What is really striking about this recording is how it really feels like the work of a band and a composer in harmony, not just a group of individuals showing off their talents. A disc that has true lasting appeal” THE JAZZ BREAKFAST
“[DSQ] can launch into a funky free-ish N’Orleans style collective romp (Daz Lightyear) with an underlying Hendrix-type keys riff (Horn), or a zippy 60s bluesy-bop theme (Wig Wag). It’s a band that always keeps you on your toes”. JAZZWISE
“A thoroughly enjoyable album which will appeal to all those who prefer their jazz served straight without too many fancy trimmings”. VORTEX JAZZ CD REVIEWS
