UNICYCLE MAN
Ted Piltzecker
"Piltzecker has a strong sense of space and continuity in his playing; he's the most interesting vibes man to emerge in quite some time." – Black & White England
"Piltzecker, an assured improviser himself, plays with subtle voicing and sublime intervals: you lean in to learn just what is going on." – Walter White, Victory Review
"Since vibraphone is not all that common an instrument, it's not that often I get to hear a new CD from a vibist. And, even more of a rarity is when it is a collection as enjoyable as Ted Piltzecker's Unicycle Man. Great tunes, and great playing by a truly all-star line-up. This made my afternoon!" – Gary Burton
"Unicycle Man, a la the virtuoso vibist, Ted Piltzecker, playing his one tracks in earthy, gutsy style, backed by the solid all-star ensemble, getting under our skin." – Jack Burke, Waxworks
