“Incisive, beautiful playing and gorgeous writing. Great record, Alan is a voice worth listening to!”
- Paul Bollenback
"Alan is a next-generation modern player/composer on the rise, from Hong Kong but with NYC pedigree. Beyond his lush harmonies, seamless rhythmic sophistication and breathy melodies, I connect with the expressiveness and honesty I hear in this array of original compositions that are beautifully recorded. It's music that will appeal to musicians who love this idiom, and to listeners new to jazz who love soothing textures and ethereal melodies. I hear the budding of a prolific composer who I think people will be excited to see/hear where he goes”
- Peter Mazza
“…The guitar artistry is exceptional, the tone is warm and rich, the technique is clear, precise and very fluid….”
- Fred Hamilton
“This album is full of his brilliancy, warmth and tenacity. The tone heals the listener.”
– Daiki Yasukagawa
