On 7/18/97, Kenneth Newman pontificated about Zepp to Doug Farrow:

While not perhaps audiophile quality, it is not so bad as to intrude on the
music itself (my threshold for recording quality). I found it somewhat
fascinating to listen to McLaughlin's playing. I'd be hard-pressed to say
from listening that this is the same man who did the Mahavishnu Orchestra
stuff and his accoustic _My Goals Beyond_. That's (at least - there's
probably more I haven't heard) three very different styles. That's not saying
any one is better than the others - just very different.
