Phase Two
from York Sessions (2001) by Paul Aitken
about
The whole tune just popped out of my head one night, all twelve bars in one go. Do you ever feel that the events in your life never actually change but just enter different phases? Or do we just interpret them that way? There is a great line from the movie Magnolia: "We may think we’re finished with the past, but sometimes the past isn’t finished with us."

Good Piranha/Bad Piranha
by Wanyne KrantzThe pinnacle of funky improvisation and very much the inspiration for my work with Aitken | Clark | Peacock. Wayne Krantz is a huge inspiration!

Oz is one of my favourite players working today. This album sees him with the outrageously imaginative rhythm section of Etienne Mbappé and Dave Weckl. The amped up "Steroids" on this, WTF!?
