“Something of an institution in Scottish jazz” - Kenny Mathieson, The Scotsman
New Album Swing 2006
now available at all the band's gigs or by emailing Roy at the address below, price £10.

These MP3 tracks will give you a flavour of the album. They're complete tracks, put together at half the sample rate of CD tracks - perfectly OK to listen to and much smaller files to download, but to fully appreciate the superb recording quality achieved by recording engineer Colin Hood you should really buy the album!
