"Imaginary Landscape," Rob's debut album on Fresh Sound New Talent, was selected one of
the best CDs of 2004 by the Albuquerque Journal.
Aaron Goldberg's comment from the liner notes of Imaginary Landscape:
Rob Wilkerson is a generous musician with
an ear for beauty. In quest of recognition or sustenance some musicians can forget what initially called them to this
life-path: sound. Not Rob. Artistry and renown are not always aligned in our musical socioeconomy. But despite
the impure state of the meritocracy, good music is still the best promotional device. An album full of promise such
as Rob's reminds us all why we do what we do.
Every member of this ensemble deserves wider
recognition.
Over the long term each will achieve such recognition precisely because he is not living in its pursuit. Rob, Jesse,
Adam, Bill, they make up a particularly fertile crescent of the Brooklyn
underground; open-minded, acute, warm.
Chris has long been one of our prime sources of inspiration, a beacon of sound, spirit and concept. The consequent circle
possesses a unity of vision. Rob's decision-making on this first album is flawless, his writing imbued with graceful
counterpoint and natural repose. The title track is pristine. Listen.
