First CD and comprised of original material. Terry lays down solid acoustic bass on all 12 original tracks, and some great piano here and there. Andrew plays rhythm guitar in the traditional Hot Club style, and sings everything from heart-wrenching ballads (Marcelo, Wake Up Baby) to scorching country-rockers (Livin’ It Up, Morning Train). Violinist Nik Brown improvises Grappelli-like on some tracks (New Friends, Enjoy Yourself or Get Out), and cooks that country fiddle on others (Livin’ It Up, Feet Back on The Ground). Neil Billington pops in for a cameo harmonica solo on Middle Class White Boy Blues
"While the name of the combo and the bio both suggest jazz standards of the 30s and 40s a la Django Reinhardt, this recording bears little resemblance to any of its Paris (almost) namesake. There is the Grappelli-like violin style of Nik Brown and some lovely jazz guitar from Andrew London, but Terry Crayford’s piano and smooth vocals along with the wit and vocal edge of London’s songs take this album into a very different terrain. In fact Andrew London’s Middle Class White Boy Blues sort of sums it up. It’s great! Polished performances all round, plenty of variety and a sense that they’re not taking it all too seriously. Yes,it’s jazz but not for the purists, it’s way too accessible! " Mike Moroney
