A really full sound, then the drop out to feature the very Milesian horn of Carr.

Carr's trumpet tone is to die for

Delicious!

Some of Spedding's best work is on this album. Superb timing and range of sound.

The interplay is fantastic - I wonder how much is a live recording, what when on with overdubs.

Another master.





I'd have been happy with another ten minutes or so of development of Song for the Bearded Lady.

I just adore Jenkins' oboe - that is what makes (in particular) Soft's Six and Seven so strong

Incredible

That funky guiatr riffing adds a lovely extra dimension to the reed

Loving John Marshall even more on this song, he's really holding them all together - so often the drummer is the most important member of the band.

The pathos of the tune, the meter, the tones is touching.
