Press quotes :
- "Guitar Groove ….One of those albums which is so good you can't stop playing it" (Manchester Evening News, 2/99)
- "Guitar Groove… le disque délectable d'un artiste au sommet de son art"
(Jazzaround, 12/98)
- "… le grand Philip Catherine, sans avoir l'air d'y toucher, réinvente la recette du jazz pêchu et mélodique : "groovy". C'est que ça lui suinte des doigts à cet homme-là!"
(Jazz Magazine, 11/98)
- "Philip Catherine livre ici son album le plus joyeux…. Guitar Groove confirme l'apport essentiel de Catherine au jazz…"
(Le Matin, 10/98)
- "(Guitar Groove) … On ne le proclamera jamais assez : Philip Catherine est un immense artiste, un grand maître de la guitare"
(Virgin Megapresse, 12/98)
- "The Belgian guitarist Catherine takes John Scofield's mix of John Coltrane and Jimi Hendrix a step further by adding Django Reinhardt's gypsy soul into the mix. That's a lot of famous and talented guitar pickers in a row; Catherine belongs right up there with them."
(International Herald Tribune, 11/98)
- "Catherine must be counted among the great musicians of the day"
(Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, 3/98)
- "Catherine is 's werelds beste jazzgitarist"
"Zo had Autumn Leaves nog nooit geklonken en zo zal het nooit meer klinken"
(Utrechts Nieuwsblad, 12/98)
- "Working his magic on a Gibson ES-175, Catherine's soloing is equal parts bebop and modern jazz. He plays in and out of the changes, casting transcendent melody lines that bring together all of his musical influences and quote freely from his pas, thus creating a new music."
(Vintage Guitar, 3/98)
- "If you like jazz guitar, it would be extremely difficult to do any better than to own this five-star recording by Belgian guitarist Philip Catherine."
(Skanner, Portland, 4/98)
- "Over the years, Philip Catherine has played with Mingus, Dexter Gordon, Jean Luc Ponty and Stéphane Grappelli, always managing to enrich both his and their music in the process. It is great to see him out front a leader, and "Live" shows him at his best."
(Guitar Magazine, 3/98)
- "Philip Catherine est incontestablement une des figures de proue du jazz européen"
(Vers L'Avenir, 2/98)
