"LUTHER HUGHES AND THE CANNONBALL-COLTRANE PROJECT, Things Are Getting Better (Primrose Lane): (3.5 stars out of 5)"
by Bliss
Pasadena Weekly - Feb. 3, 2011

An aural treat for jazzbos jonesing for old-school solo swaps and melodic material. Alto saxophonist Bruce Babad’s elegant arrangement of an original melody over the chord changes for the standard “Stars Fell on Alabama” emblemizes this ensemble’s approach, which respects jazz history without being enslaved by it. Other highlights include “Glo in the Dark,” a lightly swinging tribute to Hermosa Beach Lighthouse booker Gloria Cadena, and “For Trane & Wayne,” lit by Glenn Cashman’s slow-burning tenor sax.
