"The music on this recording definitely has a mainly Jazz slant, so I thought it a good idea to dedicate it to other Jazz players (Charlie Parker and Eric Dolphy), that represent the best of that music and were an inspiration to us and many more players. I felt a recording that represented this very important project, and what we achieved together, was long overdue. So here we offer you some music we played in 1989. But still sounds, to me, as fresh as the day we first played it."
I felt a recording that represented this very important project, and what we achieved together in terms of the final results, was long overdue. So here we offer you some music we played in 1989. But still sounds, to me, as fresh as the day we first played it.
I am both glad I got the chance to play like this, and now to share it with many more people than before. There are lots of surprises in here I think, and heaps of great playing.
Big thanks to John Thurlow of Jazz in Britain for enthusiastically taking this on, and helping to build the pathway between us and the listener. I am sure that most people who get a chance to hear this music will take away good and memorable feelings. - Trevor Watts, May 2022
