Pass It On is a 2008 album by the Dave Holland Sextet. The album features a re-worked and expanded version of the quintet. Long-standing collaborator Robin Eubanks is kept on. Dave Holland Big Band members, Antonio Hart and Alex Sipiagin are also featured on this set. Rounding out the all-star rhythm section are Mulgrew Miller and Eric Harland. The resulting performance plays less like a reworked sextet, than that of a very small big band.[5]

Critical reception

An Allmusic review by Michael G. Nastros awarded the album 4 stars stating "Using a sextet, upright bassist Holland sets the bar even higher, adding the always tasteful pianist Mulgrew Miller and a four-horn front line that is relentless. This group continues to define jazz perfectly in the 21st century.".[1]
