Left of Cool is the fifth studio album released by Béla Fleck and the Flecktones, released in 1998. Left of Cool is the first album to feature Jeff Coffin, who had already toured with the band after the departure of Howard Levy. The album cover depicts Future Man, Béla Fleck, and Victor Wooten standing on Coffin's head. On the Live at the Quick DVD, Fleck describes how after the melody for "Big Country" came to him, he called his answering machine and sang it so it would not be lost.

Outbound is the eighth album by Béla Fleck and the Flecktones, released in 2000. It is the band's first album on the Sony/Columbia label. The album won Best Contemporary Jazz Album at the 43rd Annual Grammy Awards. Special guests include Jon Anderson, Adrian Belew, Sandip Burman, Shawn Colvin and Edgar Meyer.

Béla Fleck and the Flecktones. Béla Fleck and the Flecktones is an American band that combines jazz and bluegrass music. The band's name is a play on 1960s rock band Dick Dale and the Del-Tones. The Flecktones formed in 1988 when Béla Fleck was invited to perform on the PBS TV series The Lonesome Pine Specials

That didn't necessarily mean that they had run out of ideas, but it does mean that Left of Cool simply isn't as captivating as earlier efforts by Fleck. For most fans, the pleasure will be finding the little details within the solos, and there's no denying that the group - which now boasted Jeff Coffin in addition to Fleck, Victor Wooten, and Roy "Futureman" Wooten - can play. Often, it's enjoyable to just hear them jam, but the problem is often the songs lack any substance beneath the playing
