• Shaking Ray Levi's
  False Prophets or Dang Good Guessers(CD-13)
  Incus Records-1992
  The Levis are accomplished masters of the warp-speed sound bite: 26 of them here, set out like a board of weird sushi. Though most clock in at between 30 seconds and pop-single length, there are two more substantial tracks in the middle of the set- the combative "All Against All" and "Lady Ms Girl Shine"- which confirm that this isn't just a comic put on. - Penguin Guide to Jazz, 1994
