Jim Mullen is one of the heroes of the UK constantly touring as either
soloist or with his Quartet, he is one of the most consistent jazz performers
this country has ever produced. He is very much admired by visiting
American guests and he has played with most of them. His guitar playing
always has that lovely blues quality and he has a wonderful sense of
timing. Listening to him soloing on these Disney tunes he sounds like
he could play any of them for the whole album without ever running out
of ideas.
The rhythm section of Gareth Williams, Mick Hutton and Gary Husband
are as good as you will hear anywhere. I find Gareth Williams an enigma,
he is so capable that he fits in to the style of absolutely any group
he plays with to the extent that you wonder, which is the real Gareth
Williams! Drummer Gary Husband is also an excellent pianist although
he is not used in that role on this album.
What you hear on this album are top UK jazz professionals, playing a
programme of songs that should be heard more often than they are. I
found it one of the most pleasant musical experiences I have had for
years.
