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.

Jock McKenzie

"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 !!!!!!!!!! )"

“This intriguing "water-borne" voyage runs the gamut from more classically-tinged interpretations to straight-ahead and improvised jazz. Along that journey we are treated to a highly inspired and masterfully presented performance.”

“An absorbing selection of refined choices and inspirational highlights. Marvellous."

"The more I listen to this album the more I find to enjoy and the more impressed I am. The wealth of talent on display in terms of composing, performing, recording and producing is fantastic"

“One of the all time great brass recordings OF ALL TIME”

"Who but the best professionals could live up to this ?... Everything about this disc is to be recommended, the recording is crystal clear and the playing and arranging of the first water”
