   About Will Collier Septet
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ "To me the music of the Will Collier Septet has so many things of what i love about music; beautiful melody, groove, individuality, sincerity, much feeling, surprising structures. But most of all it sounds like people expressing together as one in a pure and clear way. I enjoy alot to listen!" - Seb Rochford (Polar Bear, Acoustic Ladyland...) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------"Will Collier - a gifted young, British double bassist Collier leads a dynamite septet stylistically recalling the likes of Kenny Wheeler, Dave Holland, Tin Hat Trio, Bad Plus and Medeski Martin and Wood. Very Impressive." - Tom Barlow, Jazzwise ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Great tunes, really fresh sounding and like the detail" Liam Noble

Hi Will.

I hope you'll forgive a bit of shameless merchandising. My new CD is out.
Still doin' the Jazz thing, but this is definitely not your father's organ trio!

CD Baby
's got it; there are samples, links & digital downloads on my Myspace page.

Cheers,

Pete

This is one of my favourite quotes

Faith is the great cop-out, the great excuse to evade the need to think and evaluate evidence. Faith is belief in spite of, even perhaps because of, the lack of evidence.

Hiya,
If you're not doing anything tonight come to 1001 Cafe on Brick Lane. Me and my friends, violinists Helen Bower and Sarah Telman are playing some sultry acoustic music. It starts about 9! It'd be lovely to see you there!

Hi will
it's good to see that I'm not the only one who thinks David Ruttenburg is a complete twat - he deletes my comments though! I think we should start a petition to get him banned from myspace because he is a cad and a bounder to boot....

Will,

Truely magnificent compositions! Great harmony! Very smooth, and a dash funky too. Awesome musicians; your septet is a very impressive achievement. I'm simply awestruck, and want a septet of my own now! Keep it up!

Cheers, A

The thing to remember when dicusing homeopathy is that in every single trial,and there's been loads,it's never been proven to be any more affective than a placebo.Just keep throwing that at them,it usually works.Evidence my dear boy,evidence.

That weekend should be ok for golf,I'll let you know bro.
Easy,
R.
