Catalogue Note:
Sometimes, in the world of jazz, musicians come together, often by chance, who inspire one another. The combination of John Hallam with the Tony Oreshko Trio is just such a coming together. Together they conspire to create moments of intense excitement, melancholy, humour and passion and others of serene beauty.

The line-up is Tony Oreshko guitar; Pete Berryman rhythm guitar; Marcus Vergette double bass and John Hallam clarinet and tenor sax.
