'Bluesy Susie is the eponymous singer ( big-hearted Susie Webb) of the band which takes her name and which trawls songs from a number of different genres, infusing all with an instinctive jazz feeling based on how superbly its personnel gels. It's the supreme test of such a band that wherever one looks there's a sense of knowing that each musician will deliver, both as a soloist and as a contributor to the ensemble. At Pontypool, and with a completely new set of charts for the occasion played as though they had been in the book for years, guests Nick Baron (percussion) and Gethin Liddington (trumpet) slotted in seamlessly to prove that jazz - and even popular music forms brought into the jazz fold for the occasion - has a wider currency than purists imagine. A swinging band, a rocking band, a blues band - a band for all occasions.'
