The entire album is a testament to good jazz. The rhythm section sounds great, both individually and as a unit, complimenting Andrew’s lyrical style perfectly.
The perfect background to your daily pleasures (...) Melody-filled, ethereal and very rich; it's a soundtrack to an imaginary adventure with romance, drama, chases and a happy ending piped in from the 60s.
FINALLY!!! The live video of Mr. Confuse & The Confusers playing at the Mephisto Club in Hannover Germany on 27th September 2008 is ready. It was the album release concert of the Mr. Confuse album “Feel The Fire” released on Légère Recordings as DLP, CD and digital in September 2008.
