Quite enjoyed this and in particular the percussion featured on a few tracks.

Jazz, Jazz, Jazz, listening to classical chamber music and Jazz, Jazz, Jazz, lately. A small sample of my listening habits:

Oh the wonderful VJO, their new cds are on order, and so to whet my appetite I listened to perfromances of the compositions and arrangements of Slide Hampton.

Hi Claus

I picked that one up in Amsterdam earlier in the year and although I couldn’t fault the recording or musicianship it didn’t do much for me, maybe I’ll get it back in the player and give it another go

Very nice, I don't have that album but I do love Byas' big "Colemanesque" sound, enjoy.

Yeah, music is good, but obviously taken from vinyl or some kind of mechanical recorder - sonics not great!

I saw the album for a fiver in that new CD shop on Dame st and thought I couldn't really go wrong.
