· Trumpeter Bruce Adams has for many years been a key member of the Alan Barnes group; as well as with the BBC Big Band, the Scottish Radio Orchestra, etc.
· Bassist Spike Heatley’s musical partners over a long career include Tubby Hayes, Ronnie Scott, Helen Merrill, John Dankworth, Maynard Ferguson, Kenny Baker and many, many more.
· Drummer Malcolm Mortimore is of a slightly younger vintage, but equally admired and with a long list of credits including : Ian Dury, Gentle Giant, Frankie Miller, Herbie Flowers, Chris Jagger & Big Jim Sullivan - to name but a few.
· This new studio recording is a fine example of a tight, swinging, melodic, bop-based session by a top-quality British quartet.
