For this fourth collaboration between Caines and Archer, we've concentrated on the pure, raw jazz feel of Ron's playing - a rawness which reflects Charles Parker filtered through the prism of British jazz from the 70s or thru AACM music, rather than then more polished sound of many of today's players. A sequence of short tracks mixes every possible combination of the players from solo through to full ensemble, with instrumental colours scattered around the canvas of what is effectively a concerto with Ron's highly individual sound at its centre.
