Alan Skidmore is unquestionably one of the greatest tenor saxophonists of his generation, whether you’re talking about British saxophonists or saxophonists from any part of the world. His ebullient, virtuosic and passionate playing has been a cornerstone of British jazz ever since Alan – son of the equally legendary saxophonist Jimmy Skidmore – burst on the scene in the early 1960s. Along with 1969’s ‘Once Upon a Time’ (reissued on Vocalion CDSML 8406), ‘TCB’ (1970) is widely regarded as being one of Alan Skidmore’s finest albums, and Vocalion are proud to give it a second airing on this release. It finds Skidmore in the company of such mercurial talents as John Taylor (piano), Chris Laurence (bass), Malcolm Griffiths (trombone) and the late Tony Levin (drums), while on four of the titles the Quintet effectively expands to a Septet with the addition of special guests Mike Osborne (alto sax) and John Surman (soprano sax). Not only is the musicianship stunning, but so is the quality of the compositions themselves, from the pens of John Surman, John Warren, John Taylor, Mike Osborne and Alan Skidmore himself.
