Brilliantly played quirky jazz standards. daevid returns to his roots with this fresh bebop album on which he sings some of his favourite classic jazz standards with a powerful, grooving, eloquent and emotional quartet of master jazz musicians including Gong's Didier Malherbe and master drummer N'dugu Chancler. The playing is of the very highest standard and daevid's new and re-written lyrics are pure alien. Just joyful throughout. daevid's booklet notes.
