London Jazz Festival, in association with BBC Radio 3, Friday 11 to Sunday 20 November 2011

A fierce melding of three exuberant spirits, this trio produces music of uncompromising intensity and virtuosity, as three jazz greats combine and combust. John Marshall (Soft Machine, Eberhardt Weber et al) gives free rein to his legendary drum skill, while Norwegian bass superstar Arild Andersen (ECM) explodes with ideas and attack. John Etheridge is inspired to produce free wheeling improvisations of passion and daring as a cauldron of music bubbles and steams.

"British guitarist John Etheridge's musical associations are a real slideshow - Django Reinhardt gypsy swing at one moment, Frank Zappa or Soft Machine dedications at another. But this power trio, with Norwegian double-bass virtuoso Arild Andersen and resourceful drummer John Marshall, is his supergroup. A raunchy hook and theme-packed conversation between world-class improvisers."
