Description

Being of a certain age, I am often accused of being something of a Boomer and others anticipate that my musical tastes will be defined by my age. NOT SO !

I enjoy a very broad spectrum of music styles and genres.

This piece was written as an attempt to get my revenge on a particular ensemble; forcing them to include original musical quotes that hint at both The Bee Gees and Happy Mondays within the same piece.

“This is joyous stuff; an intelligent, coherent crossover disc, performed with phenomenal punch. Brilliantly recorded too – what’s the point of assembling a collective of virtuoso brass players if they can’t make your ears bleed ?”

“Just wanted to give a general shout-out to SUPERBRASS - who are truly super-bad; for my money, one of the most exciting large brass ensembles EVER.”

Rex Richardson

"WOW !!!!! all of you should be locked up !!!! What great stuff - the compositions/arrangements, the playing (OUTRAGEOUS !!! ), everything is simply fantastic. (actually - i couldn't have expected anything less ! ) Many, many thanks to you and all for your superb contributions. yet again, you've managed to raise the bar! (an inch or two is ok but a few yards is really unfair !!!!!!!!!! )"
