If you are not acquainted with the subdued delights of the Organ Trio, here's your chance. Not three organs, you'll be glad to know, but Hammond organ, drums and Mullen's inimitable, mellow guitar. With its fearsome power held in check, the Hammond is capable of great warmth and delicacy and Mike Gorman is a master of this. Matt Skelton's drumming is feather-light but firm. The trio has now become a quartet with the addition of Stan Sulzmann on tenor saxophone. His glossy tone and sweeping phrases bring a new perspective to the sound. The programme mixes originals with ballads ranging from Nat King Cole to Robert Burns. ~Dave Gelley
