Cathi 2 things happened almost simultaneously.  Got your message via jazzmatrix and then your order via cdvine.co.uk.  A few months ago we decided the cd needed remastering.  That done it's just about to go into reprint and what I'll do is deliver an existing copy to you and an update copy when the remastered version has been copied.  Thanks for your enthusiasm!  - Paul

Just heard Smolder.  Sounds good - very good - I like the grooves.  You remind me I must put some stuff up.  Meanwhile if you're curious go to www.elephant3.co.uk

Hi Trombabe!

Glad I noticed your page, really dig your stuff, really. My brother used to play trombone, I did the trumpet, we had a noisy time, I can assure you... 

Notice you dig Miles, I totally agree, he's a guy without whom jazz would be so much lesser, that's for sure...

Peace

&

Keep blowing that horn of yours
