about

Originally released in 2004. Recorded in 2003. Produced by Nick Weldon.

Space To Be: ‘In this album a plangent Japanese folk song might provide the theme for a straight-ahead or even lightly funky jazz-based workout; a solo-piano passage drawn from the same source might draw either on Impressionism, the spikier pungency, a jazz-bass riff might underlie piano solo laced with Japanese cadences and harmonies.’

Chris Parker : Former reviewer from The Vortex (London)
