 * “EVEN IN THESE TIMES OF EXTRAORDINARY BASS PLAYERS, SHARPE STANDS OUT.”
   
   —Leonard Feather, Los Angeles Times
   
   


 * “THE KEY TO THE THRUSTING POWER OF MR. TYNER’S CURRENT TRIO IS THE BASSIST,
   MR. SHARPE. . . . ALTERNATING BETWEEN ACOUSTIC AND ELECTRIC BASS, [HE]
   MAINTAINS SUCH A COMMANDING PRESENCE ON BOTH THAT HE IS A CENTER AROUND WHICH
   EVERYTHING ELSE ROLLS.”
   
   —John S. Wilson, the New York Times
   
   


 * “HEAVY GOSPEL INFLUENCES ARE OFTEN EVIDENT IN SHARPE’S ORIGINAL WORK. THE WAY
   HIS SOLOS SLOWLY ENLARGE, LIKE THE SERMONS OF A PULPIT-THUMPING PREACHER,
   REFLECT THE SPIRITS OF HIS CHILDHOOD HOME.”
   
   —Mike Ervin, JazzIz
   
   


 * “LONG-TIME BASSIST FOR MCCOY TYNER, SHARPE EXCELS ON HIS INSTRUMENT AND SHOWS
   CREATIVE COMPOSING AND ARRANGING SKILLS AS WELL.”
   
   —Sunsh Stein, JazzTimes
   
   


 * “SHARPE IS AMAZING ON THE ELECTRIC BASS. . . . HIS GUITAR-LIKE SOLOS DISPLAY
   A MUSICIANSHIP AND A MELODIC QUALITY THAT ARE ALMOST UNHEARD OF ON THAT
   INSTRUMENT.”
   
   —Jim Fuller, Minneapolis Star and Tribune
   
   


 * “SHARPE’S TECHNIQUE ON BOTH ELECTRIC AND ACOUSTIC BASS IS ALWAYS USED TO
   FURTHER THE MUSIC … [AND] HIS FELLOW MUSICIANS HAVE NOTICED.”
   
   —Jim Roberts, Guitar Player
   
   


 * “FORGET ABOUT CATEGORIES LIKE MAINSTREAM AND FUSION AND NEOBOP … BECAUSE IF
   THERE’S ONE THING YOU CAN SAY ABOUT AVERY SHARPE, IT’S THAT THERE’S NO LABEL
   WORTH HANGING ON HIM EXCEPT MUSICIAN. AND AT THAT, HE’S EXTRAORDINARY.”
   
   —Gene Santoro
