Sounds Like: "Like George Duke, early Santana (sans Carlos), Herbie Hancock, late Mothers of Invention/Beefheart, maybe some Bernie Worrell and Stevie Wonder.
The rhythm section wore huge boots made of bloody granite." - Otolathe

"Worldwide Zoo is more of a stylistic salad, a crunchy toss of world beat, folk, rock and jazz." - Julie Garisto of the St. Pete Times

"Very now. Crisp. Lots of tinsel. A grooovifonic sound explosion. I dig the vibe.
Keep it vague you barbarian freak masters!" - Rob the Canadian

"...nice swinging kit, trombs and trumps, rumbling bass and Rhodes, like it...only a fool wouldn't!
Just right for a moody Tuesday night in London.
Cheers!" - Tony English

"Mix up some traditional jazz, acid jazz and some funk, and you've got a good idea of the sounds. Killer jazz drum solos, Rhodes keys and some crazy bass lines." - Dave Sammon (1st time Zoo concertgoer, photographer, stranger turned friend)

"a digitalized 18 piece samba band seranading you while you wash in an enormous bath tub built for this eccentric purpose of having fun." - El Seedy
