Albums First Time, Pick Up The Pieces

Press Reviews Interspersing choice standards, including Wes Montgomery's "West Coast Blues" and Oscar Pettiford's "Tricotism", Interplay sends forth an invigorating round of jazz that capitalizes on the sensual without muddying itself in murky soft-jazz waters. Multi-instrumentalist Tom Williams leads this quintet through several beefy bits that are brought together by the strong bass playing of Geoff Harper and Tim Murphy's intricate piano runs. What's most captivating about Pick Up the Pieces is its lively, club-friendly ambiance. As the CD player scans track to track, the band's upfront, personal style provides a warm and welcoming feel, as if you just stepped into the cozy confines of your local jazz hangout. Cool without being contentious, Interplay showcases each member's unique talents as well as the capable efforts of a band that can arrange the rhythms and show off the solos that make jazz fans' ears perk up with interest. -- am -Spendid E-Zine 4/01
