First time vinyl edition of the 2008 album by themuch-missed Harry Beckett, a Barbados-borntrumpet player who became a key figure in the UKand European jazz scene.
Becketts genius is that he is always true tohimself, whoever he performs with. His
effervescent, tumbling, improvised melodies neverfail to lift the spirits. The Modern Sound Of HarryBeckett is a magnificent sonic treat. – TheGuardian
Sherwoods production style strikes a perfectbalance here between sonic creativity and
respectful restraint, and Beckett himself is brilliant,creating horn lines that weave and insinuatethemselves through the grooves rather than ridingon top of them. Established On-U Sound fans willfind this to be an enjoyable curiosity; Harry Beckettfans may find it revelatory. – All Music
