The observer, 2017-09-10
"It runs for exactly an hour, but there's so much variety here, packed into what is essentially a piano trio album, that it seems over in half the time. There are jazz pieces by Monk, Miles Davis and others, an improvisation on a prelude by Chopin, a Stylistics soul classic, an original or two, and so on. And they all flow together quite naturally under the mellow influence of Cyrus Chestnut's piano ... The whole show closes with a gospel anthem, played as a rapturous piano solo"

"When Cyrus Chestnut first teamed up with bassist Buster Williams and drummer Lenny White for last year's Natural Essence, it seemed as if the pianist had finally found his dream team. Not only was the playing engagingly virtuosic, but it never wandered far from the gospel/blues grooves in which Chestnut is most comfortable. After one listen, it was hard not to want more. But not necessarily the kind of "more" we get from There's A Sweet, Sweet Spirit. Instead of delivering more of the same, Spirit tries to expand on its predecessor's approach, and not always in the wisest of ways"
AllMusic, 2017
"Cyrus Chestnut's 2016 effort, the superb Natural Essence, benefitted greatly from his pairing with the duo of bassist Buster Williams and drummer Lenny White. Thankfully, the pianist has followed up with another engaging set featuring the same veteran luminaries. An adept virtuoso talent, Chestnut soars alongside Williams and White on 2017's There's a Sweet Sweet Spirit ... While all of his albums are worth checking out, there is something inspired and kinetic about his playing with Williams and White, as if they are all three pushing each other to discover new avenues of expression. Joining them this time on several tracks is yet another volcanic talent in vibraphonist Steve Nelson. Though he only appears on three cuts, his warm harmonic resonance contrasts beautifully with Chestnut's as they dig into an expansive late-'60s jazz sound on two of vibraphonist Bobby Hutcherson's best-known compositions, "Little B's Poem" and "The Littlest One of All""
