    "'Haslam has combined his talents with two distinguished, if little heard, pianists to create a memorable CD, one that brims with emotion and the sound of special musical contact." - Stuart Broomer, Cadence

    "Both sets are committed to a creative course and Haslam is in relaxed form on both. On the Kiev set we have his tarogato cutting a swathe through the opening and conclusion of Odessa. It is his authoritative baritone work on the languid Long Day and in his Aylerish treatment of Barbara Allen that he makes his biggest impression. In Buenos Aires his throbbing vibrato adds emotional depth to Rio De La Plata, he is excitingly inventive on Please Don't Ask and he really attacks Which Brother." - Barry McRae, Jazz Journal
