I first posted these comments a few days ago when this album was posted in the Orgy in Rhythm blog :
A great session ? No . Not bad , but not top shelf either . The writing was pretty bland for the most part . I did like the arrangement of When Johnny Comes Marching Home ; the playing on it reminded me a little of Tubby Hayes . Too bad it was so brief . There were times particularly on Devil's Disciples and Oliver's Twist , that Menza played a lot of notes to very little effect . The title track put me to sleep .
