Release Notes:
"John Heaven's debut album is an impressive affair. Funky,
witty and diverse, this collection of originals recalls the
Brit-Funk of The Average White Band and the English Soul of
those mid seventies delights Kokomo. Heavens has stage-managed
the affair almost single-handedly, calling upon a stellar cast
of UK singers, horn players and a delightfully funky Andrea
Vicari on piano. The songs are fresh and groovy, teasing the
listener with well arranged intros, Tower Of Power style,
easing into head-nodding grooves and framing Heaven's well
intoned and refreshingly unadorned vocal delivery." - Ian Shaw
(BBC Jazz Vocalist Of The Year 2007).
