Product Description
Malcolm Laycock, BBC Radio 2
"Sometimes talent just hits you in the face and leaves you gasping....a stunningly original album."
Album Description
This album will be a future classic! Easy-listening with a tilt towards mainstream jazz - beautifully recorded with fantastic musicians. An incredibly musical ensemble ranging from trio to 10-piece band and string section support one of the UK's finest young singers. Sparkling new arrangements of these great songs are performed by an all-star band featuring, among others, Jim Mullen on guitar, Robert Fowler on saxophone and pianist James Pearson. The CD is effectively a "two-sided" album; 8 swinging tracks for an upbeat mood, followed by 8 mellow, introspective songs for more reflective moments.

Format:Audio CD
A great, new, swing / easy listening singer has announced his arrival on the British scene with this excellent album. Matthew Ford's impeccable vocals impress throughout and the arrangements by Colin Skinner, James Pearson and Steve Bentley-Klein newly mint songs most swing / jazz fans will have at least a passing familiarity with. Sound production is excellent. This album has great attention to detail throughout from all the musicians involved and is worth of adding to any serious music collection. I look forward to Matthew's next release with great anticipation.

This album compares with no other present day artist in the easy listening catagory, accompanied by the finest british musicians around today. I have been so exhilarated by this album coming from a british singer. An international star in the making.
Superbly recorded and produced, it will appeal to all age groups.
