John Wadham (Livia Records, 1978) Remastered and extra tracks. There's a particular kind of chemistry that only shows up when musicians have logged real hours together on Dublin bandstands, and Drums and Friends captures exactly that. Drummer John Wadham — known to his peers simply as "The Wad" — steps out from behind the kit as leader on his only album as a bandleader, but it never feels like a drummer's vanity project.

Analog Tone Factory latest album due to be released December 4th Pre Order October 2026 Drum Stories Andrew Cyrille, Billy Hart, Bill Stewart, Nasheet Waits AAA 180g Vinyl The Standard Edition and Limited Numbered 1-Step Edition both feature AAA 180g Vinyl, cut by Bernie Grundman and pressed at Gotta Groove.

Including the Scorpios and JJ Whitfield. Two very fine recordings from this progressive label based in Finland, ecletic mix of Jazz , Funk , psychedelic Prog rock and modern jazz You can find links on the Home page of my site for both YouTube snippets.

A stunning recording, an album well worth its place in any modern improvised modal jazz collection!

As soon as I heard the digital pressing in the media kit, the immediate impression was it's a winner.
