" (The Penguin Guide to Jazz)C. Andrew Hovan the author of the new liner notes for the album writes: "Lullaby for a Monster", recorded just before his triumphant homecoming, stands as a powerful reminder of an era when jazz giants roamed in abundance. A favorite among musicians, this album deserves wider recognition within Gordon's impressive discography.""... intense and vibrant music throughout... " (DIAPASON, France)"... in this stripped down setting Dexter Gordon is truly on fire... " (Soulpope - The Jazz Beat)
