Amazon.co.uk Review
Here is proof positive that some of Britain's jazz musicians are at least the equal of their transatlantic colleagues. Trombonist Roy Williams is partnered in the front line by American tenorist Scott Hamilton who, for contractual reasons, is not mentioned on the front of the jewel case and in only small letters on the reverse. Hamilton has spearheaded a mainstream movement for several years while trombonist Williams is arguably one of the very best in the world. Add to them a rhythm section of great strength, flexibility and the ability to swing at any tempo and the result is a sextet of classic proportions. On piano is Brian Lemon, who has played on almost every Zephyr album issued to date. He is backed by Dave Green and Allan Ganley with guitarist Dave Cliff added as soloist and rhythm player. The 11 tunes are tried-and-tested songs such as "Sweet Georgia Brown" (Lemon is heard instructing his men on solo lengths at the outset), "Bye Bye Blues" and "Georgia On My Mind". The group takes fresh approaches to the standards while the lengthy "Blues In The Closet" has outstanding solos all round. --Steve Voce
