Robert Mitchell's Panacea + Richard Fairhurst/Tom Arthurs

Gifted, intelligent and intricate pianist Mitchell's expansive musical vision encompasses Jarrett-inspired solo flights and his own update on the cerebral post-jazz funk legacy of sax pioneer Steve Coleman's hugely influential M-Base collective. This twisted take on urban soul here also features the spellbinding vocals of Deborah Jordan and a fine band. Support comes from artful jazz piano/trumpet duo Fairhurst and Arthurs.
