‘The music here is easily among the most inventive jazz being recorded in the U.K. at the time. Compositions and arrangements are breezy and complex, with gorgeous woodwind and cello textures. And all of the songs swing. This double album is a must own… a terrific two-CD set’ Marc Myers Jazz Wax
‘This highly attractive compilation…contains nothing to frighten the horses and there are several examples that really do convey a singular beauty.’ Russell Newmark – The Beat
‘Overall, this is a wonderful time capsule of the early days of modern British Jazz, which is a delightful trip down the memory lane, and quite an educational perspective of the history of the British Jazz chronology. Kudos to the Rhythm And Blues label for digging this material from the depths of the vaults and releasing it, keeping the memories alive.’ Adam Baruch
