The longtime high-powered sideman bassist Bryan Beller - who usually specializes in supporting ex-Frank Zappa guitarists Steve Vai and Mike Keneally, takes a different in course in his debut solo album View, a carefully-crafted tapestry of jazz-rock instrumental fusion, solo acoustic/electric compositions, and flat-out impact. A true, thematic album in the classic sense, View strongly establishes Beller's compositional voice: Featuring guitarist Mike Keneally, drummers Joe Travers (Zappa Plays Zappa) and Toss Panos (Larry Carlton, Robben Ford), and recorded by Nick D'Virgilio (Spock's Beard, Tears For Fears).

Press Quotes
Sublime moments of melancholia, beauty, and joy...View shows how terrific Beller is as a bassist, but it also establishes his real musical talent as a writer
—Bill Leigh, Bass Player Magazine
There is some monster playing on the album to be sure, and fans of those camps will not be disappointed...but thanks to his musical sense and savvy, the album goes way beyond that. This is a strong first effort
—Sean Westergaard, All Music Guide
