This album – our first – represents the culmination of a project by our sound engineer (Peter Alcock) using traditional microphones and techniques. No electronic cheating or fancy studio trickery here. The recordings on this CD are faithful to the classic Big Band sound of the 1950s, using a matched pair of BBC PGS ribbon microphones as designed by the BBC in 1954.
