The Acker Bilk: Danny Moss Quintet on CD

This CD pairs two British jazz greats - clarinetist Acker Bilk and tenor saxophonist Danny Moss. They have formed a 'one-off' quintet and gathered together some great British jazz old-timers, including pianist John Critchinson, best known for this partnership with Ronnie Scott, bassist Cass Caswell, who has engaged a busy career playing on the RMV Queen Elizabeth, and drummer Eddie Taylor, a veteran of the British jazz scene having played with John Dankworth, Humphrey Littleton and George Melly. Musically all bases are covered, from old standards like 'Undecided' to 'Sweet Lorraine' with Acker on vocals, to the swing tune 'Sugar' and classics such as 'Georgia on My Mind' and 'Sweet Georgia Brown.'
