Based loosely on "No Cambiare" by Hector Lavoe & Willie Colón
lyrics
Something fell.
Something changed things for yourself
without means to express the change without.
There is no badge but your resolve to crush the one who has fallen.
You dig a grave,
drape yourself in mourning wear:
a roughly sewn uniform of something else.
A cherry-picked pantheon,
feigned formality,
callous rubbed against itself.
Where came this unyielding adamance?
This baseless authority?
An absolute rejection wears away at all who miss the question.
A spiky path for those who love you;
a twisted hedge to the centre of yourself ;
an intimidating invitation to a game you made yourself.

this record is so evocative of a specific time of day, in a specific room, in a specific time of my childhood in 1991, that I get kind of lost in memory when I listen. this is music overflowing with warmth and kindness, a soft world for anyone who needs it Ashley Rivera

UK jazz-rock icons pay tribute to British trumpeter Harry Beckett in the second entry in My Only Desire Records’ Brit Jazz 45s series. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 1, 2024
Stunning ... The opener has very much a 70s sound, somewhere between jazz-rock fusion and progressive rock. But the band show their exuberence and expertise by carving their own path.
Such a shame there's no more. Peter Jones
