Glow is an apposite title. The music, all originals by the quartet members, is shouting, joyous, fiery. Tenor saxophonist Jason Cooney is one of the brightest of the younger jazz musicians and has worked in Mike Nock's group. He has an attack, especially out front of this band, that can pin you back against the wall - 'post -bop contemporary' is the definition given.

The sound shows a keen awarenss of the history of jazz. There's an earthy rawness which gets to you.

-- JIM McLEOD, ABC Radio 24 Hours Review of Glow, June 1997.
