An apt name for the visceral Title Track and torrid opener...UK saxophonist Mark Lockheart creates music that lives in the moment, in all of the moments, as narratives are spontaneous and fluid....with a kick butt rhythm section of Huw V Williams, bass, Jay Davis, drums

Anyone else still amazed when their favourite records aren't streamable? (I secretly love being niche 😇)
I still get so emotional listening to this; all that energy & joy knowing the Ronnie Scott's residency was their last performance.

Today another of my musical heroes celebrates her birthday. Happy Birthday Sade Adu! She’s turning 67!
Choosing a song is, like we say in French, l’ambarras du choix. This one is one of my favorites. What’s yours?
