"While it is impossible to presume where Jacobson may go from here, he has surely enhanced his profile via Discover, wherein he affirms that his name is worth knowing and remembering.  Stylistically, it is clear from the outset (on his original "New Combinations") that Jacobson has listened to and learned from such luminaries as Clifford Brown and Lee Morgan, among others, as he has blended some of their mannerisms into his own singular design." 

Jack Bowers - ALL ABOUT JAZZ

"The future of Blue Note-styled hard bop is in good hands with trumpeter Eric Jacobson along with his snappy quintet of Geof Bradfield/ts, Bruce Barth/p, Dennis Carroll/b, and George Fludas/dr. Jacobson has a sound and feel not dissimilar to Lee Morgan, and the team grooves like a vintage Horace Silver's outfit."
