Reviews

  • "The Transfer's first live recording in seven years. And, yes, after more than two decades in existence, they're still pretty hot."
    • -- Los Angeles Times
  • "A great live set by the vocal quartet who specialize in jazz vocalese, still harmonizing strongly with 30-plus years under their belts."
    • -- Goldmine
  • "This impressive set shows that the Transfer is still at the peak of their collective powers...it's time we acknowledged them as one of the very best of a dying breed, THE classic vocal group. This CD is proof positive . "Couldn't Be Hotter" indeed."
    • -- JazzReview.com
  • "Recorded in Japan, Couldn't Be Hotter fully displays the humor and soaring interplay of Hauser, Siegel, Paul, and Bentyne as they re-establish themselves as the premiere vocal quartet."
    • -- Rhythm & News
