Dennis Rollins/Mark Ellis/Alex Hutton/Geoff Gascoyne/Clive Fenner

A fluent and funky improvisor, acclaimed trombonist and educator, Rollins' wide ranging skills encompass a virtual history of black music from the hollers and chants of the cotton fields to drum 'n' bass and hip hop. He's here with a fine band for a loose limbed blowing session alongside piano virtuoso Hutton and leading UK bass ace Gascoyne.
