Details
Anyone who heard them together at the Lockerbie Jazz Festival last year will know that the American clarinettist and tenor saxophonist Ken Peplowski and Alan Barnes, the British clarinettist and player of several types of sax, make quite a team. That they relish each other's musical company is evident in concert because one always invites the other to be a special guest, and it shines through just as strongly on this terrific CD; the ideal blend of unexpected tunes, swinging, lyrical playing and good, old-fashioned fun.
