Guitarist Alban Claret and trumpeter Evan Clegg deliver original, powerful, snappy tunes and confident improvisational passages on their debut album, 'The Collection'.

"This is an interesting and creative journey into post-bopland. Although the publicity notes that accompany this release suggest influences such as Charlie Parker, Lennie Tristano and Miles Davis, the result is closer to jazz from 1950s California West Coast (which similarly drew on such influences)." - Jazzwise
