CULTUREPRESS2008
Excellent late-period recording of Stevens' group, which very nicely swings in between more free parts. As befitting the work of a man who gave so much to upcomming musicians, the personnel is a mixture of better known and lesser known players. John Stevens, drums; Byron Wallen, trumpet, pocket trumpet, flugelhorn; Paul Rutherford, trombone, euphonium; Iain Bellamy, alto and soprano saxophone; Evan Parker, soprano saxophone, tenor saxophone; Ed Jones, soprano saxophone, tenor saxophone; Mike Pyne, piano; Phil Lee, guitar; Ron Matthewson, bass; Jeff Clyne, bass. Recorded live at The Lilian Baylis Theatre, London during the London Jazz Festival on 19 May 1993.
