Bill Leigh, Bass Player August 2003
Sweet fondness between fine friends is the
essential feel of this album by talented Londoner Hamill. He uses his upright
bass and little else to accompany vocalists and an occasional saxophonist
performing well-written, mostly new tunes. Hamill employs his plush tone to
great effect, using harmonics and polyphonic ostinatos, swinging jazz walking
lines, and simple pop support to complement each distinctive and delightful
ditty.

Very much a
masterclass in the double bass, Andy Hamill holds together this wide collection
of collaborators with bass playing of exceptional quality and range. You'll
never think of the double bass as boring again.
Bill Oddie - "extremely enjoyable"
Holy BASS!
