This album had such an influence on how I like to approach big band writing. I regret that I never went down to see them live.

A beautiful composition from this wonderful band. Jazz is such a delightful art form and needs to be enjoyed.

Brings memories back - used to play this at Leeds Music College early 80s.

Leeds must’ve been interesting in the early 80’s, right? Pretty gritty place, yes?
