A review by Kathleen Nelson - (as posted on Amazon.com)

ASCENSIONISM
Richard Bone

        Richard Bone writes really awesome music. This album is one of the best in the really hip and popular genere of smooth jazz. As a devotee of ultra cool music, I have often found myself amazed while listening to our local equivalent of smooth jazz radio how many times I hear really conceptually limited music by famous artists who get repeated air play of their "corporate" stuff.

There is nothing conceptually limited in Richard Bone's music. As you listen to this album you will hear a creative genius who is his own man, tantalize your musical taste buds with a fusion of jazz wrapped around fresh, melodic, outrageous grooves, kissed with some knock out spiritual vibes, plus occasional ambient sounds sprinkled throughout to tease you with a sweet reminder of the natural world outside.

Waters of Assiyah, Ariel Dane & the Seraphim Swing, Ascensionism and The Continuing Adventures of Jet Swani are guaranteed to get your body, mind and spirit movin' to the grooves. The entire CD is simply terrific.
