Quotes for An Afterthought:

Wagnon is the bond between the complex rhythms and horns as he insinuates the themes and melodies while displaying clever multitasking qualities...the band comes at you like a freight train, yet perform with the grace and elegance of an eagle in flight!...an exhaustively explosive affair!
A vibist who could probably rip many of his peers to shreds in a cutting contest, Wagnon also excels as being somewhat of a modern visionary and high-achiever whether performing on vibes or as a composer-leader.
...unique statements that sound remarkably fresh and somewhat futuristic.
- Glenn Astarita, AllAboutJazz.com

Where Zappa meets Corea Wagnon displays beautiful melody and texture on the vibes Guitarist Van Manakas gets to stretch his chops on "old New World" while the closing piece "Postlude" allows drummer Katz to "go ballistic".
Very creative horns lines and thougthful improvisation make this release enjoyable...
- Mike Haid, Fuse Magazine

The result is something I think prog fans with a sense of adventure might really enjoy.
Fans of fusion, Canterbury music, and even Frank Zappa are sure to find this album right up their alley
- John Covach, Progression Magazine

This recording holds interest from start to finish, the musicianship and originality is lofty, and Wagnon should be quite proud of this individualists effort. Recommended.
- Michael G. Nastos, All Music Guide

...the more I listened to "An Afterthought" the more deeply I got impressed by this incredibly interesting, distinctly original and in many ways innovative album.
Sarah has an amazingly beautiful voice, and her vocal qualities are so strong that she can use her singing not only as a real musical instrument, but can also work with it as effectively as each of her band-mates does with his respective instrument.
Sarah's vocal parts in each composition she sings on are so wonderfully rich in emotions and diverse in arrangements that they outclass even that instrumental canvas (rich in itself) that is behind her singing. I couldn't even imagine that I'll ever hear such an incredibly innovative thing as using wonderful female (very female) vocals, performed mostly in a symphonic key, in a work of Jazz-Fusion...
...an album-masterpiece - Volkmar Mantel Ragazzi (Germany)
