The rather "raw" sound is perfect for the content of this fine album. The energy shines through every track and I was pleased to feature Utopie on the Suffolk'n'Cool podcast show 150 on 31 Dec 08.

A deliciously quirky offering from Azoora. The subtle and relatively sparse production adds to the atmosphere on these tracks and focuses attention on the songs themselves.
I was pleased to play Lying back- fire in her eyes on show 1409 of teh Suffolk 'n' Cool podcast on 24 December 2008. Thanks for making it available.

A beautifully constructed album with lots of variety and a few surprises that demand attention. I was pleased to play Solid Ground on episode 149 of the Suffolk 'n' Cool podcast on 24 December 2008. Thanks.

As a showcase, this album works very well. Each track is well worth a serious listen. However, I am looking forward to future albums that might have a little more focus on a genre and go into a bit more depth. I was pleased to play Sweet swing on edition 149 of the Suffolk'n'Cool podcast on 24 December 2008. Thanks for making it available.

Robin Grey is an exceptional and pivotal talent. This album sits well with his other offerings and his work on Ruth Theodore's Worm Food and on the Blue Swerver album demonstrate the versatility and depth of musicianship.
I played Winter Blues on show 148 of the Suffolk'n'Cool podcast last night at www.suffolkandcool.com
More will follow.

I am so impressed by this album. The diverse the individual tracks somehow hang together in a coherent, beautifully produced album that I am proud to have featured on show 142 of the Suffolk'n'Cool podcast. I know that other tracks will deservedly get airings too.
With over 400 tracks a week to listen to I'm way behind now - "Listen" is still on repeat for me!
Having only recently discovered the album, I just played "No we can't" on the Suffolk 'n' Cool podcast (show 139) You'll find it at www.suffolkandcool.com. It is a really strong track with lots of interest and enough "edge" to keep my attention. I'm looking forward to getting to know the rest of the album in a bit more detail.
Thanks for making it available.
I played Song 7 on the Suffolk'n'Cool podcast 134 on 10 Sept. Loads to interest in there including a quite spectacular build.
Sounds like 10 musicians having a great time and taking a few risks - which makes the music even more interesting. Pleased to have played Delirar on the Suffolk 'n' Cool podcast on 10 Sep 2008. Thanks for making it available.
The clean recording adds to the feeling that this is music making in action. I was pleased to play Clair de Lune on show 134 of the Suffolk 'n' Cool podcast on 10 Sept 2008. You'll find it at: www.suffolkandcool.com
