    There will never be another Bela Fleck. He's more than just a banjo player that seems to defy the laws of physics. He's an ambassador of great musicians. Everybody he surrounds himself with shines like gold when they perform with him.

    This version of Big Country gives me chills. It's like the song fulfilled its destiny.

    Has to be one of the greatest and most under appreciated pieces of music ever written.  The poor mainstream crowd will never know.

    It’s music like this that makes life worth living.  I can’t get enough of this kind of perfection.  Thank you, Béla!!

    The entire Transatlantic sessions were off the charts, fabulous and timeless, beautiful merging of the styles of traditional Irish and American Folk/Bluegrass overtones in perfect unison...it reaches down deep inside and touches your heart in a way that is indescribable....God Bless all here...and there in attendance

    Bela looks at the other artists with the same affection that I see Mark Knopfler look at his colleagues with.. Pure adoration. What a group!
