Press Quotes
"Charles Gayle‘s music is breathtaking... This album is one of the stronger entries in his discography—the fact that the tape took 18 years to emerge says nothing about its quality. Highly recommended."
--Phil Freeman, Burning Ambulance
"Look Up shows that it didn’t matter where Gayle played and who he played with, he performs as the living, high priest of guttural jazz. Few, if any, can preach this kind of gospel with this much vigor and personal investment."
--S. Victor Aaron, Something Else!
"Gayle plays with conviction to spare."
"Reactionary sentiments aside, this disc is inspired."
--Mike Shanley, JazzTimes
