MIKE WESTBROOK Metropolis + Citadel / Room 315 (Scarce 1979 UK
20-track double LP repackaging of the two albums. Metropolis is a nine
movement brass frenzy for big band, including Part IX recently
featured on the Impressed compilation. Citadel was first
commissioned by Swedish radio and along with Metropolis makes for
one of the more acclaimed efforts in British progressive jazz. Alan
Skidmore, John Taylor, John Surman & Norma Winstone all star. The
gatefold sleeve is excellent and the vinyl mint PL25229)
