A new adventure with some old friends

As Pip said told me on the phone earlier today, "This is the best live CD I've ever been involved in" - and he's right, it's great, I really enjoyed it. In fact it's on it's third consecutive playing. Inventive, smooth, electric jazz/Canterbury fusion with some outstanding playing. We know how bonded and outstanding a rhythm section Freddie T. Baker and Pip are, but add Patrice Meyer, an un-doubtable virtuoso jazz guitarist, and the excellent Fender Rhodes and Hammond Organ playing of Alex Maguire and this is a band going places.

Tracks 1,2,3,5,6,7,8 recorded live at the Triton, Paris 6th June 2003. Tracks 4 & 9 recorded live at the Progman Cometh Festival, Seattle, 10th August 2002.
