Reviews of 789 Miles (click the name of the publication to read the review):
All About Jazz (David Orthmann): "As an improviser, Olson is a raconteur who integrates a touch of soul into a commanding voice..."
Jazz Journal (UK): "there’s no lack of preaching soul in his playing on this set of uplifting swing, bop, ballad and backbeat"
All About Jazz (Mark Sullivan): "a tight, funky organ trio"
