UK Price: £11.99 + p&p

"This wholly admirable album plays like a live set. It is a studio recording but the way it builds from the opening, wistful interpretation of a fine Tom Waits number into some jumping jive and concludes in exciting fashion with a pair of R&B classics leaves you feeling that you had the best table in front of the band.
I look forward to seeing the band in person because they are a sure-fire club and festival attraction."BOB WEIR, JAZZ JOURNAL DECEMBER 07

"To create the kind of easy swing you hear on The Wrong Door, the precision and attack of Big Girl, the blend in Bring It On Baby takes talent, focus and a lot of working together. And when you experience it live you discover what a real show can be - wholehearted, full-on, exhausting and unforgettable.
.........Resistance is futile. Surrender to having a good time."
