Traditional Peter Grant album

2007 eagerly awaited sophomore album, a big move on from his debut and includes a lot of original material as well as his interpretations of the classics. The lead single 'Traditional' for a Jazz number, is anything but, taking the genre by the horns and bringing it abruptly into 2007, whilst keeping it so very youthful and alive. Other key tracks include 'You're Worth It', and a treatment of Nancy Wilson's 'How Glad I Am' which is absolutely beguiling and features the striking vocals of Belle Erskine. UMTV.
