Thanks for your review we appreciate your kind comments.

Gutted to miss this (offspring playing elsewhere in the region). Grover was one of the premier jazz-funk acts when I got into jazz in the late seventies before - like the rest - he descended into smooth jazz. Hope they do it again; I know there's an audience for this round Durham, Chester le Street and Toon.
