Reviews

 

02/05/2005 Digby Fairweather

"This album is an unqualified triumph. A stylistic span of compositions from connoisseur standards to contemporary delights; neat, sweet originals and arrangements by all three participants; regular use of all the tonal opportunities including mutes; cosmetic details such as the use of four and eight-bar conversations between players alongside extended outings – all these clever devices and more keep the listener, well, listening. Chris’ trumpet playing is an intriguing but entirely convincing meld of stylistic influences in which you can regularly spot echoes of Miles, Sweets, Clark, Chet, Cootie, Roy Eldridge, Louis, Ruby and our very own Humphrey Lyttelton. Amid this stylistic quilt however, Chris is basically a fine trumpet-player. The result is an album worth detailed attention. A job exceedingly well done! I loved it! "
