Critics about Conference Call

...This is a remarkable record with a surprise at the end that will leave the listener wondering why this band isn't headlining festivals all over the world.

Conference Call is an inspired group. Period. ... Conference Call is one of the most important ensembles on the scene today. Fun, ideas, and free flowing music are the trademarks of this successful unit. Final Answer is just one more example of what this group brings to the table.
