I play trumpet on track 5 of the album (“six in the morning”), and I’ll be playing with them on a bunch of tracks at the launch. You can listen to streaming snippets of the album (including the section of track 5 that I’m on) here.

The Fold are also going to be interviewed about the album on RRR’s Local and/or General radio program on Monday 14 July, 2008 @ 8pm.

The song is Miles Davis’ bebop standard Donna Lee, made famous by Jaco Pastorius, Charlie Parker and others. It’s breathtaking stuff, and gut-wrenching to think what Clifford would have gone on to do if he hadn’t died at such a young age.

Listen here.
