Given the line-up, one could be forgiven for thinking Gil Evans but one would be wrong! This, to my mind, is 100% Rattigan. His writing comes without any baggage - he is his own man. Having said that, the team of A-listers he has chosen are as much a part of him as were Hodges and co to Ellington.

CD Review: Jim Rattigan's Pavillon - The Freedom of Movement
Given the line-up, one could be forgiven for thinking Gil Evans but one would be wrong! This, to my mind, is 100% Rattigan. His writing comes without any baggage - he is his own man. Having said that, the team of A-listers he has chosen are as much a part of him as were Hodges and co to Ellington.
