The musical expertise and virtuosity of this twenty-year partnership are the result of a committed and relentless gigging schedule, driven by a desire to evolve and create great music.
This album features the classy Hammond organ work of mainstay Pete Whittaker, alongside superb drummer Eddie John. To add extra spice and colour to the recording, we brought in additional musicians on bass guitar, horns, piano, and backing vocals.
